Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Vershire, VT.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only central for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, individuals who struggle with both issues at the same time may have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need significant medical help once they do get addiction treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical assessment to determine if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
