Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Great Mills, MD.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only central for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug issue continue.

In many cases, clients who battle with both issues at the same time have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need serious medical intervention once they do reach drug treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
