Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Peru, ME.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only crucial for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue.

Often, people who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need critical medical help once they receive substance abuse treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Addiction rehab for individuals with HIV or AIDS in Peru includes detoxification treatment which are safely conducted with both the client and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same goal is recommended.
