Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Mars, PA.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only crucial for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who battle with both issues concurrently may have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require significant medical intervention once they do reach drug rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive 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.

Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other persons have the same goal is recommended.
