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

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their drug problem continue or worsen.

Often, clients who fight with both issues at the same time have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require serious medical intervention once they do get alcohol or drug treatment. Aside from rehab for their drug addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other illnesses 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.
