Persons in Port Ewen, New York with HIV/AIDS might find that they are in need of substance abuse rehabilitation. It is important that the drug rehabilitation program of choice is one which recognizes the difficulties involved in assisting clients affected by these illnesses so that having HIV/AIDS is not a barrier to their rehab. Once any physical hurdles have been conquered, as is common with addicted persons who have not properly cared for themselves, persons with HIV/AIDS in treatment will address all of the psychological and emotional problems involved in their drug or alcohol addiction. The end result will be an individual who can take care of themselves physically and in life, and possibly add quite a few years to their lives.
