Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Gallina, NM.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others in the case their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, individuals who battle with both issues concurrently may have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need serious medical help once they do reach addiction treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical evaluation to see if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
