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

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their alcohol or drug 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 drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

Often, people who fight with both issues concurrently may have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS.
