Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - East Barre, VT.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only crucial 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, people who battle with both issues concurrently may have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need critical medical help once they receive substance abuse rehab. Aside from treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical evaluation to determine if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
