Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Lake Ronkonkoma, NY.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their substance abuse problem continue.

In many cases, people who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need serious medical help once they do reach drug rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a full medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehab for individuals with HIV or AIDS in Lake Ronkonkoma would include detoxification treatment that are safely administered with both the patient and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same sober goal is strongly recommended.
