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

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only essential 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 issue continue or worsen.

Often, people who fight with both issues concurrently have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need significant medical help once they do reach drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical evaluation to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
