Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - North Lakewood, WA.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only central for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their drug issue continue or worsen.

Often, clients who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may urgently need significant medical intervention once they do get alcohol or drug rehab. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical exam to see if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
