Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Port Monmouth, NJ.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only essential for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug issue continue.

In many cases, clients who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies deteriorate 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, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require critical medical intervention once they do get alcohol or drug treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a full medical assessment to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
