Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Machiasport, ME.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others in the case their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who fight with both issues at the same time have let their health decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require critical medical intervention once they receive drug treatment. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical exam to see whether they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
