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

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.

Often, people who struggle with both issues concurrently may have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need critical medical intervention once they receive drug or alcohol addiction rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for individuals 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 Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
