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

For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their drug addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only essential for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread 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 fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require serious medical help once they do reach alcohol or drug treatment. Aside from rehab for their addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to determine if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
