Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Swainton, NJ.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their drug issue continue or worsen.

Often, clients who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require serious medical help once they receive substance abuse treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to see if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Substance abuse rehabilitation for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Swainton can include detox services which are safely administered with both the patient and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same goal is strongly recommended.
