Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Glen Wild, NY.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only central for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their substance abuse problem continue.

In many cases, clients who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require critical medical intervention once they do get substance abuse treatment. Aside from rehab for their addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Addiction treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS in Glen Wild can include detox treatment that are safely conducted with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling 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 encouraged.
