Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Swampscott, MA.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only essential for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others in the case their drug problem continue or worsen.

Often, clients who struggle 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 give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may urgently need serious medical intervention once they do reach substance abuse rehab. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a full medical assessment to see if they have any other problems 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.

Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same goal is recommended.
