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

For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only essential for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others if their substance abuse problem continue.

Often, people who struggle with both issues at the same time have let their health decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require serious medical intervention once they do reach addiction rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical evaluation to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Addiction rehab for individuals with HIV or AIDS in Chaffee can include detox services which are safely conducted with both the client and the staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling people with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same sober goal is encouraged.
