Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Ebervale, PA.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others in the case their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require critical medical intervention once they receive alcohol or drug rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical evaluation to see if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
