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

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment 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 substance abuse problem continue.

In many cases, people who battle with both issues at the same time have let their health decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require critical medical help once they do get addiction rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical evaluation to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
