Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Gorham, NH.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment 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 substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, individuals who struggle with both issues concurrently have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need significant medical intervention once they get addiction rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to see if they have any other problems 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.
