For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others in the case their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.
Often, individuals who fight with both issues at the same time may have let their health decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may urgently need significant medical intervention once they get alcohol or drug rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a full medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
Addiction treatment for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Jersey City can include detoxification services which are safely handled with both the client and the treatment staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other persons have the same goal is strongly encouraged.
