Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Beaver Falls, PA.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol problem continue.

Often, people who fight with both issues at the same time have let their health decline because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require critical medical intervention once they get drug rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical exam to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
