Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Zolfo Springs, FL.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug addiction.

In many cases, individuals who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS.
