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

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only essential for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

Often, clients who struggle with both issues at the same time have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need significant medical help once they receive drug treatment. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical evaluation to see whether they are experiencing 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 disorders.

Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same goal is encouraged.
