Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Woodbury, GA.

For persons with HIV or 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 simultaneously while they receive rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their drug problem continue.

In many cases, individuals who struggle with both issues concurrently may have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may urgently need significant medical intervention once they receive drug or alcohol addiction rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical evaluation to see if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
