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

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

In many cases, people who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently 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. Some stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need significant medical intervention once they get drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to see if they have any other problems 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 problems.
