Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Bushkill, PA.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their drug addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only essential for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

Often, clients who battle with both issues concurrently may have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may urgently need significant medical intervention once they do reach drug rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their addiction, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a full medical assessment to see if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Substance abuse treatment for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Bushkill would include detoxification treatment which are safely administered with both the client and the treatment staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling individuals with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same goal is strongly encouraged.
