Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Glen Lyn, VA.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others in the case their drug problem continue or worsen.

Often, clients who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their health decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require critical medical help once they get addiction rehab. Aside from rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical assessment to determine if they have any other problems 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 problems.
