Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Wenonah, NJ.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who battle with both issues concurrently may have let their health decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need serious medical intervention once they do reach drug or alcohol addiction rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical evaluation to determine if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. 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 persons with HIV/AIDS in Wenonah includes detox services that are safely conducted with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same goal is recommended.
