Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - South Woodstock, VT.

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

Often, individuals who battle with both issues at the same time may have let their health decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need serious medical intervention once they do reach substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical evaluation to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
