Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Westernport, MD.

Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others in the case their drug problem continue.

In many cases, clients who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS.
