Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Dover Foxcroft, ME.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in rehab 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 if their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who fight with both issues concurrently may have let their health decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require serious medical intervention once they get drug rehab. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
