Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Mastic Beach, NY.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in rehab is not only central for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their substance abuse issue continue.

Often, individuals who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need serious medical help once they do get drug rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical evaluation to see whether they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
