Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Joliet, MT.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only crucial for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

Often, people who struggle with both issues at the same time have let their health decline because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need serious medical help once they receive alcohol or drug rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical exam to determine if they have any other problems 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.
