Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Manhasset, NY.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only central for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others in the case their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

Often, clients who fight with both issues concurrently have let their bodies fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require critical medical help once they do reach substance abuse rehab. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical evaluation to see whether they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
