Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Winthrop, NY.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only essential for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others if their substance abuse issue continue.

Often, clients who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need serious medical intervention once they receive drug or alcohol addiction rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical evaluation to determine if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehabilitation for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Winthrop would include detox treatment that are responsibly conducted with both the client and the treatment staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
