Persons in East Calais, Vermont with HIV/AIDS may possibly find that they are in need of alcohol and drug abuse rehabilitation. It is essential that the drug treatment program of choice is one that understands the challenges involved in assisting clients affected by these diseases so that having HIV/AIDS is not a barrier to their rehab. Once any physical challenges have been overcome, as is common with drug or alcohol addicted individuals who have not properly cared for their health, persons with HIV/AIDS in rehab will address all of the psychological and emotional problems involved in their addiction. The end result will be someone who can properly care for themselves both body and mind, and perhaps add many years to their life.
