Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Chester Heights, PA.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in rehab 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 should their substance abuse issue continue.

In many cases, individuals who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their health decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need serious medical intervention once they do reach alcohol or drug treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation to see whether they are experiencing any other problems 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 disorders.

Substance abuse rehab for persons with HIV/AIDS in Chester Heights includes detox treatment which are safely handled with both the patient and the treatment staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
