Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Nescopeck, PA.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their drug issue continue.

Often, clients who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need serious medical intervention once they do get alcohol or drug treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to determine if 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.
