Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Penasco, NM.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others in the case their drug problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, individuals who struggle with both issues concurrently have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require critical medical help once they receive addiction treatment. Aside from rehab for their addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a full medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
