Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Flintstone, MD.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only central for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others in the case their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.

Often, people who struggle with both issues at the same time may have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require serious medical intervention once they get alcohol or drug treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
