Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Lake City, CO.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only central for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug problem continue or worsen.

Often, people who battle with both issues at the same time have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require critical medical intervention once they do get drug or alcohol addiction rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation to determine if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
