Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Delaware City, DE.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their drug issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, people who battle with both issues at the same time may have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require critical medical intervention once they get addiction rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation to see if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
