Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Gorman, TX.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only central for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others if their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, individuals who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need significant medical intervention once they do reach drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
