Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Olney Springs, CO.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others in the case their drug issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, individuals who struggle with both issues concurrently may have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require significant medical help once they do get addiction rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical exam to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
