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

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only crucial 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 drug or alcohol problem continue.

Often, clients who battle with both issues at the same time have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require serious medical intervention once they receive drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a full medical assessment to see if 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 problems.

Substance abuse rehab for people with HIV/AIDS in Kirkville would include detox treatment which are safely handled with both the patient and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same goal is recommended.
