Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Baldwinville, MA.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only central for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

Often, clients who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require serious medical help once they do reach drug or alcohol addiction rehab. Aside from treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical exam to see if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Addiction rehabilitation for persons with HIV/AIDS in Baldwinville can include detox services that are responsibly administered with both the client and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same sober goal is recommended.
