Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Hanover, ME.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in treatment 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 drug or alcohol problem continue.

Often, people who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need serious medical help once they receive drug rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical exam to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Addiction rehab for persons with HIV or AIDS in Hanover includes detox services which are responsibly handled with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
