Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Jenners, PA.

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

Often, people who battle with both issues at the same time 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.
