Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Short Hills, NJ.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only central for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, individuals who fight with both issues concurrently have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need significant medical intervention once they do get drug treatment. Aside from rehab for their drug addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical evaluation to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
