Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Fort Ashby, WV.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol issue continue.

Often, individuals who fight with both issues concurrently have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need critical medical help once they get addiction treatment. Aside from rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical exam to see if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
