Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - South Sterling, PA.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol problem continue.

In many cases, individuals who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS.
