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

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only central for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their drug issue continue.

Often, people who battle with both issues concurrently have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need significant medical help once they get drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from rehab for their addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a full medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
