Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Osterburg, PA.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their addiction. Keeping this client in recovery 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 in the case their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, people who struggle with both issues concurrently 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. Most stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need serious medical help once they do reach drug rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical evaluation to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
