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

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only central for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol issue continue.

In many cases, people who fight with both issues concurrently may have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need significant medical intervention once they do reach addiction rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Addiction treatment for people with HIV/AIDS in Woodbury can include detox services which are responsibly administered with both the patient and the treatment staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same sober goal is strongly recommended.
