For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only essential for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug problem continue or worsen.
Often, individuals who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore urgently need serious medical help once they get substance abuse rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical evaluation to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
Addiction rehabilitation for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Calais would include detoxification services which are responsibly conducted with both the client and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same goal is strongly recommended.
