Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - West Covina, CA.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who struggle with both issues at the same time may have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need significant medical help once they get addiction rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for persons 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 tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
