Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Newfoundland, NJ.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only essential for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, people who struggle with both issues at the same time have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need serious medical help once they get addiction rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab center which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to determine if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse treatment for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Newfoundland can include detox services that are safely handled with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same goal is strongly encouraged.
