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

For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others if their drug or alcohol issue continue.

Often, people who fight with both issues at the same time may have let their health decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore urgently need serious medical help once they do reach drug rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
