Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Alpine, NY.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug or alcohol issue continue.

Often, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require serious medical help once they receive drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
