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

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others in the case their drug problem continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need significant medical intervention once they get drug or alcohol addiction rehab. Aside from rehab for their addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

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