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

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

Often, people who battle with both issues at the same time have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need critical medical intervention once they do reach substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their drug addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
