Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Ridgeway, NC.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their drug problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who battle with both issues concurrently have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need significant medical help once they get substance abuse treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical exam to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
