Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Livonia, NY.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only essential for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their drug problem continue.

Often, clients who struggle with both issues at the same time may have let their bodies fall apart due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS.
