Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Flint, TX.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, individuals who struggle with both issues concurrently have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need significant medical intervention once they do get substance abuse rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a full medical assessment to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
