Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Maynard, MA.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle 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 treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug issue continue.

Often, individuals who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their health decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need serious medical intervention once they do get drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehab for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Maynard would include detoxification services that are responsibly administered with both the patient and the treatment staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same goal is strongly encouraged.
