Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - South Wales, NY.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who fight with both issues at the same time have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need critical medical intervention once they do reach drug treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a full medical assessment to see if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Addiction rehabilitation for persons with HIV or AIDS in South Wales would include detox services which are safely conducted with both the client and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same goal is strongly encouraged.
