Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - South Cairo, NY.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their drug problem continue.

In many cases, people who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require serious medical intervention once they do reach drug or alcohol addiction rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical exam to see if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Addiction rehab for persons with HIV or AIDS in South Cairo can include detox services that are safely administered with both the patient and the treatment staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling individuals with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same goal is encouraged.
