Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Hopkinton, RI.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only essential for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their substance abuse issue continue.

Often, clients who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their health decline because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need serious medical intervention once they do reach substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a full medical assessment to see if they have any other illnesses 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.

Substance abuse treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS in Hopkinton would include detox treatment which are safely administered with both the patient and the treatment staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
