Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - South Miami, FL.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only crucial for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others in the case their drug problem continue.

Often, clients who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies fall apart due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require critical medical help once they do reach addiction rehab. Aside from rehab for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a full medical assessment to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
