Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Kennedy, NY.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only crucial 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 should their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.

Often, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need critical medical help once they do reach addiction rehab. Aside from rehab for their addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation to determine if they have 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.

Addiction rehab for people with HIV or AIDS in Kennedy can include detox services that are responsibly conducted with both the client and the treatment staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same goal is encouraged.
