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

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol problem continue.

Often, clients who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require serious medical help once they do reach alcohol or drug treatment. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical exam to see whether they are experiencing 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 Moshannon includes detoxification treatment that are responsibly administered with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same sober goal is recommended.
