Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Pocono Pines, PA.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only central for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their drug problem continue.

In many cases, people who battle with both issues at the same time have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need critical medical help once they do get drug treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to determine if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse rehabilitation for individuals with HIV or AIDS in Pocono Pines can include detox services that are responsibly administered with both the patient and the treatment staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same sober goal is encouraged.
