Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Canton, MA.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only essential for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, people who fight with both issues concurrently may have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require significant medical intervention once they do reach substance abuse rehab. Aside from rehab for their drug addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical exam to see if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
