Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Rochelle Park, NJ.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only crucial for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require critical medical help once they do reach drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS in Rochelle Park includes detox treatment which are safely administered with both the client and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
