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

For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only crucial for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who fight with both issues at the same time have let their bodies fall apart due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need significant medical intervention once they do reach addiction rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab center that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Substance abuse treatment for individuals with HIV/AIDS in North Granville would include detox services which are responsibly administered with both the client and the treatment staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same goal is recommended.
