Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - New Providence, NJ.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug or alcohol issue continue.

Often, clients who struggle with both issues at the same time have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need critical medical intervention once they receive substance abuse treatment. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse rehab for individuals with HIV/AIDS in New Providence can include detox services which are safely handled with both the client and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same sober goal is encouraged.
