Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Belgrade Lakes, ME.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, individuals who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need significant medical intervention once they do get alcohol or drug rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical evaluation to see whether they have any other illnesses 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 holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling 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 encouraged.
