Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Lake Peekskill, NY.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only essential for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol problem continue.

In many cases, people who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need critical medical help once they do reach drug rehab. Aside from rehab for their addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a 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.

Addiction rehabilitation for people with HIV or AIDS in Lake Peekskill can include detoxification treatment which are responsibly administered with both the client and the treatment staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other persons have the same goal is strongly recommended.
