Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Martinsburg, NY.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only central for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their drug issue continue or worsen.

Often, clients who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need critical medical help once they do reach addiction treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to determine if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
