Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Squaw Valley, CA.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only essential for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

Often, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need critical medical intervention once they do reach substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
