Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Elfrida, AZ.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only essential for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others in the case their drug problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, individuals who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their health decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require serious medical help once they receive substance abuse treatment. Aside from rehab for their addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
