Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Ashford, CT.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only central for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore urgently need serious medical help once they do reach alcohol or drug rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
