Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Rochelle, GA.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who struggle with both issues at the same time have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need serious medical help once they do get drug or alcohol addiction rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to see if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
