Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Hollidaysburg, 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 recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only central for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug issue continue or worsen.

Often, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time 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. Many quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require significant medical intervention once they get substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a full medical assessment to see whether they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Addiction treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS in Hollidaysburg would include detox treatment that are responsibly handled with both the client and the rehab staff in mind.
