Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Avon, NY.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

Often, people who battle with both issues concurrently have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may urgently need significant medical help once they do reach drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation to determine if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehab for persons with HIV/AIDS in Avon can include detoxification services which are safely handled with both the client and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other persons have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
