Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Williamstown, VT.

For people 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 alcohol or drug addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only essential 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 drug issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, individuals who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need critical medical help once they receive drug rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical exam to see whether they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other persons have the same sober goal is encouraged.
