Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Greenwood Lake, NY.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their drug problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, individuals who fight with both issues concurrently may have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require significant medical help once they do reach alcohol or drug treatment. Aside from treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical exam to determine if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
