Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Shawville, PA.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only essential for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, individuals who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may urgently need critical medical help once they do get drug rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
