Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Rockport, WA.

For people with HIV/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 treatment for their drug addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only essential for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who struggle with both issues at the same time may have let their bodies fall apart due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require significant medical intervention once they do get drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical assessment to see whether they have any other illnesses 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.
