Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Blacksburg, VA.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol problem continue.

Often, clients who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need serious medical intervention once they do reach addiction rehab. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
