Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Carrizozo, NM.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue.

Often, clients who fight with both issues concurrently have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need serious medical help once they do get drug rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a full medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
