Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Preston Park, PA.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others in the case their substance abuse issue continue.

Often, people who battle with both issues concurrently may have let their health decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require critical medical help once they do reach alcohol or drug rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
