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

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only essential for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others in the case their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

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 people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require serious medical intervention once they do reach drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical assessment to determine if they have 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.
