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

For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle 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 treatment for their addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their drug issue continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who battle with both issues at the same time have let their health decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require serious medical intervention once they get drug rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical evaluation to see if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehabilitation for individuals with HIV/AIDS in North Salem includes detoxification services which are safely administered with both the client and the staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling individuals with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same goal is encouraged.
