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

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug problem continue.

In many cases, clients who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently 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. Many stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need critical medical help once they do get alcohol or drug treatment. Aside from treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical exam to determine if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse treatment for persons with HIV/AIDS in Cresson would include detoxification services which are safely administered with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling people 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.
