Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Walla Walla, WA.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, 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 or alcohol addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only central for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue.

In many cases, clients who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require serious medical help once they receive addiction treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
