Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Stanton, 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 recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only essential for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their drug issue continue.

In many cases, people who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require significant medical intervention once they do reach substance abuse rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical evaluation to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Addiction treatment for persons with HIV/AIDS in Stanton would include detoxification services which are safely conducted with both the client and the treatment staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same sober goal is encouraged.
