Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Whitesboro, NY.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only essential for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue.

In many cases, clients who struggle with both issues at the same time may have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need critical medical intervention once they do reach addiction rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to see if they have 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.
