Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Pittsford, NY.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only central for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who struggle with both issues concurrently may have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS.
