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

For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue.

In many cases, individuals who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time 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. Most stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may urgently need serious medical intervention once they do reach substance abuse rehab. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
