Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Milton, WV.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others if their drug or alcohol problem continue.

In many cases, clients who battle with both issues concurrently may have let their health decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need serious medical intervention once they get drug treatment. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol problem, in a facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical exam to determine if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
