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

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue.

In many cases, individuals who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore urgently need significant medical intervention once they do get substance abuse treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation to see if they are experiencing any other problems 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 rehabilitation for people with HIV or AIDS in Salem would include detoxification treatment that are responsibly administered with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling individuals with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other persons have the same sober goal is strongly recommended.
