Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Lottsburg, VA.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their addiction. 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 are likely to spread their disease to others should their drug issue continue.

Often, clients who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may urgently need critical medical intervention once they get addiction treatment. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical evaluation to determine if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
