Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Poughquag, NY.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Getting this client in recovery is not only essential for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their health decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require significant medical help once they do reach substance abuse treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a full medical assessment to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
