Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Dewitt, VA.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their substance abuse issue continue.

In many cases, people who fight with both issues concurrently have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need critical medical intervention once they get substance abuse treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to determine if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
