Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Folsom, PA.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only essential for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their drug problem continue.

Often, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore urgently need serious medical help once they do reach drug rehab. Aside from rehab for their drug addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical exam to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
