Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Matheson, CO.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only crucial for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others in the case their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, people who battle with both issues concurrently have let their health decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may urgently need significant medical intervention once they do get alcohol or drug rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
