Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Burlington, ND.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others if their drug issue continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS.

This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
