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

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only central 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 problem continue or worsen.

Often, people who fight with both issues at the same time have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need significant medical intervention once they do reach substance abuse rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a full medical assessment to determine if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
