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

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their drug issue continue or worsen.

Often, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need critical medical intervention once they get alcohol or drug rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical evaluation to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

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