Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Theresa, NY.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in rehab 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 should their drug problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, people who struggle with both issues concurrently may have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need serious medical intervention once they receive addiction rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their drug addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a full medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse rehab for persons with HIV/AIDS in Theresa includes detoxification services which are safely conducted with both the patient and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same goal is strongly encouraged.
