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

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, people who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need significant medical intervention once they receive alcohol or drug treatment. Aside from treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a full medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
