Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Shrewsbury, NJ.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only central 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 problem continue.

Often, individuals who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require significant medical intervention once they do reach drug treatment. Aside from rehab for their addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a full medical assessment to see whether they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

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