Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Springfield, NJ.

For people 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 rehab for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, individuals who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their bodies fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore urgently need critical medical intervention once they do get drug rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation to see whether they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse treatment for people with HIV/AIDS in Springfield includes detoxification treatment that are responsibly administered with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
