Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Orwell, VT.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and 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 safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others if their substance abuse problem continue.

Often, clients who battle with both issues concurrently have let their health decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore urgently need serious medical help once they do reach drug rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical exam to see whether they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
