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

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only essential for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol issue continue.

In many cases, people who struggle with both issues concurrently have let their health decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need serious medical help once they do get drug or alcohol addiction rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical exam to see if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Addiction rehab for people with HIV/AIDS in Gardiner includes detox treatment which are responsibly conducted with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other persons have the same goal is strongly encouraged.
