Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Searsmont, ME.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only crucial for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their drug issue continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require significant medical help once they do get addiction treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a full medical assessment to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
