Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Highmount, NY.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.

Often, clients who battle with both issues concurrently may have let their health decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need significant medical help once they get substance abuse rehab. Aside from rehab for their addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same goal is strongly recommended.
