Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Winooski, VT.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only essential for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol issue continue.

Often, clients who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS.

Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation to see if they are experiencing 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.
