Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Joaquin, TX.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in treatment is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others if their drug problem continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require significant medical intervention once they do reach drug rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical evaluation to see if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
