Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Raquette Lake, NY.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only essential for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their drug or alcohol issue continue.

Often, people who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their health decline because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need significant medical intervention once they do reach alcohol or drug treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to see whether they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
