Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Rillton, PA.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only central for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.

Often, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time 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 stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require serious medical help once they do reach alcohol or drug treatment. Aside from rehab for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to see whether they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Substance abuse rehab for people with HIV/AIDS in Rillton would include detox services that are safely administered with both the patient and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same goal is encouraged.
