Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Arcadia, PA.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in rehab is not only essential for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their drug problem continue.

Often, individuals who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require serious medical help once they get alcohol or drug treatment. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehabilitation for people with HIV/AIDS in Arcadia includes detoxification treatment 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 motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same goal is strongly encouraged.
