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

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only essential for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their substance abuse problem continue.

Often, clients who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their bodies fall apart due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need significant medical help once they receive drug or alcohol addiction rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse treatment for people with HIV or AIDS in Mount Braddock would include detox services that are safely conducted with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same goal is strongly recommended.
