Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Lackland, TX.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol issue continue.

Often, clients who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need critical medical help once they get drug or alcohol addiction rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
