Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Highgate Springs, VT.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only essential for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

Often, people who battle with both issues at the same time may 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.
