Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Volcano, HI.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

Often, clients who battle with both issues at the same time have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS.
