Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Andover, CT.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug issue continue or worsen.

Often, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need serious medical intervention once they do reach addiction rehab. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a full medical assessment to see whether they have 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 problems.

Drug or alcohol abuse treatment for people with HIV/AIDS in Andover can include detoxification services which are responsibly handled with both the client and the staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling people with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other persons have the same sober goal is encouraged.
