Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Sweet Home, OR.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.

Often, people who fight with both issues at the same time have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore urgently need serious medical help once they receive drug treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to see if they have any other illnesses 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.
