Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - United, PA.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their drug problem continue.

Often, individuals who struggle with both issues concurrently may have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require critical medical help once they receive drug rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical evaluation to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
