Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Orange, NJ.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting and 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 transmit their disease to others should their drug problem continue or worsen.

Often, people who battle with both issues concurrently may have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require serious medical help once they get drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from rehab for their addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse treatment for people with HIV or AIDS in Orange can include detoxification services which are responsibly handled with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling people with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same goal is recommended.
