Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Branchport, NY.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only central for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who fight with both issues concurrently have let their health 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 medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need critical medical intervention once they do get substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical evaluation to see if they are experiencing any other illnesses 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 problems.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehabilitation for individuals with HIV or AIDS in Branchport would include detox services that are safely handled with both the client and the treatment staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same goal is encouraged.
