Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Winter Haven, FL.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only crucial for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others in the case their drug problem continue.

In many cases, clients who fight with both issues concurrently have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need serious medical help once they do get substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical exam to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
