Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Nedrow, NY.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others in the case their drug problem continue.

Often, individuals who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need significant medical intervention once they do reach drug or alcohol addiction rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical evaluation to determine if they have any other problems 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.
