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

For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their substance abuse. 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 are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug issue continue.

Often, individuals who battle with both issues at the same time have let their health decline because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need critical medical intervention once they do reach drug rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
