Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Copiague, NY.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only central for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue.

Often, individuals who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need serious medical help once they do get substance abuse rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to see if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehabilitation for persons with HIV or AIDS in Copiague would include detox services that are responsibly administered with both the client and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other persons have the same sober goal is strongly recommended.
