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

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only central for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue.

Often, people who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require critical medical help once they get substance abuse treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS in Topsham would include detoxification treatment which are safely conducted with both the client and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same goal is recommended.
