Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Hinckley, ME.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only central for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue.

In many cases, people who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies fall apart due to 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 urgently need significant medical help once they do reach substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab center that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to see if they have 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 disorders.

Substance abuse treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS in Hinckley includes detoxification treatment which are safely administered with both the client and the treatment staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling people with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
