Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Blossvale, NY.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only central for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require critical medical help once they do get drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical exam to see if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Addiction rehabilitation for persons with HIV or AIDS in Blossvale can include detox services that are responsibly conducted with both the client and the staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
