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

For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug problem continue.

Often, clients who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their health decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore urgently need significant medical help once they do get drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical exam to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehab for individuals with HIV or AIDS in Sandwich would include detoxification services which are safely handled with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other persons have the same goal is strongly encouraged.
