Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Wasco, CA.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others if their drug problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require critical medical intervention once they do reach addiction rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to see whether they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
