Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Garland, NC.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug problem continue.

In many cases, clients who struggle with both issues at the same time have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need critical medical help once they receive substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a full medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
