Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Centerport, PA.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

Often, clients who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require critical medical intervention once they do reach drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
