Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Meadville, PA.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only essential for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their substance abuse problem continue.

Often, people who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their health fall apart 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 therefore require serious medical help once they do reach drug rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation to see whether they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehabilitation for persons with HIV or AIDS in Meadville includes detoxification services that are safely handled with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling people with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other persons have the same sober goal is encouraged.
