Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Fellsmere, FL.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only central for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol issue continue.

In many cases, people who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require serious medical intervention once they do reach addiction rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical evaluation to see if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
