Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Lake Elmore, VT.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only essential for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug issue continue.

In many cases, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their health fall apart 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 may urgently need serious medical intervention once they get drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from rehab for their addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical evaluation to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
