Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Rockville Centre, NY.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only central for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

Often, clients who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need serious medical help once they get substance abuse rehab. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Substance abuse rehabilitation for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Rockville Centre would include detox services that are responsibly handled with both the patient and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
