Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Brooklyn, MD.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their drug issue continue.

In many cases, clients who struggle with both issues concurrently have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need critical medical intervention once they receive addiction rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehabilitation center 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, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
