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

For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, individuals who fight with both issues at the same time may have let their health decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require significant medical intervention once they do get drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a full medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
