Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Fairfield, VA.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their drug issue continue.

Often, clients who fight with both issues at the same time may have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need serious medical intervention once they do reach addiction treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical exam to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
