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

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others in the case their drug problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, individuals who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require serious medical help once they do reach drug rehab. Aside from treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical exam to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
