For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight 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 alcohol or drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol problem continue.
In many cases, clients who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need serious medical help once they do reach substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to see if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
Drug or alcohol abuse treatment for people with HIV/AIDS in Fort Yukon includes detox services which are responsibly handled with both the patient and the staff in mind.
