Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Apalachicola, FL.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug problem continue.

Often, clients who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need critical medical intervention once they do get alcohol or drug rehab. Aside from treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
