Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Wilsons, VA.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only essential for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

Often, clients who battle with both issues at the same time have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require serious medical intervention once they do get substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
