Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Belle Haven, VA.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only central for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol issue continue.

In many cases, individuals who struggle with both issues at the same time may have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require significant medical intervention once they do reach drug rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to determine if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
