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

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only central for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue.

In many cases, people who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their health decline because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require serious medical help once they do reach drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical evaluation to see whether they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Addiction rehabilitation for persons with HIV or AIDS in Babylon would include detoxification 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 can become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same goal is recommended.
