Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Bellerose, NY.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their substance abuse. Getting this client in recovery is not only central 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.

In many cases, clients who fight with both issues at the same time may have let their bodies deteriorate 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 may urgently need critical medical intervention once they receive addiction rehab. Aside from treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a full medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Substance abuse rehab for people with HIV/AIDS in Bellerose would include detoxification services which are responsibly conducted with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same goal is recommended.
