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

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only essential 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 drug or alcohol problem continue.

In many cases, clients who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need critical medical help once they do reach drug treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a full medical assessment to see if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
