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

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their addiction. Getting 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 transmit their disease to others if their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require serious medical intervention once they do reach drug or alcohol addiction rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a full medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehabilitation for people with HIV or AIDS in Portersville would include detoxification services that are safely administered with both the client and the treatment staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same sober goal is encouraged.
