Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Stowe, VT.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only central for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, individuals who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their bodies fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require serious medical help once they do get drug treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a full medical assessment to see if they have 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.

Substance abuse rehab for people with HIV/AIDS in Stowe would include detoxification services which are safely administered with both the client and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same goal is strongly recommended.
