Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - St. Helena, CA.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only central for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

Often, clients who fight with both issues at the same time may have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require significant medical intervention once they get substance abuse rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical exam to see whether they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
