Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Somers, CT.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, individuals who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore urgently need critical medical intervention once they do get alcohol or drug rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab center that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment 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 disorders.
