Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Onalaska, WA.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in rehab is not only essential for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol problem continue.

Often, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require significant medical help once they receive drug rehab. Aside from treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical evaluation to see whether they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
