Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Mc David, FL.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only essential for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug problem continue.

Often, individuals who battle with both issues concurrently may have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may urgently need critical medical help once they receive alcohol or drug treatment. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical evaluation to determine if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
