For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only essential for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.
In many cases, people who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need serious medical intervention once they do get drug treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical exam to see whether they have 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 disorders.
Substance abuse rehabilitation for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Kulpsville can include detox services which are safely handled with both the patient and the treatment staff in mind.
