Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Tillamook, OR.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their substance abuse problem continue.

Often, clients who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need critical medical help once they do reach substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation to determine if they are experiencing any other illnesses 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.
