Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Sheffield, VT.

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

Often, people who struggle with both issues concurrently have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need significant medical intervention once they get addiction treatment. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a full medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
