Persons in Fairfield with HIV/AIDS may find that they are in need of substance abuse treatment. It is essential that the alcohol and drug rehabilitation program of choice is an option that understands the challenges involved in helping clients afflicted by these illnesses so that having HIV/AIDS does not get in the way of their rehab. Once any physical challenges have been overcome, as is often the case with addicted persons who have not taken care of their health, persons with HIV/AIDS in rehabilitation will address all of the psychological and emotional issues concerning their addiction. The end result will be an individual who can properly care for themselves both body and mind, and perhaps add several years to their life.
