Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Thornton, NH.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others if their drug issue continue.

In many cases, individuals who battle with both issues at the same time may have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need critical medical intervention once they do reach addiction rehab. Aside from treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
