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

For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Getting this client in treatment is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others in the case their drug problem continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time 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. Some stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need significant medical help once they get alcohol or drug treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to see if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
