Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Hillsboro, MD.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only crucial for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who fight with both issues concurrently have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore urgently need significant medical intervention once they do get drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a full medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
