Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Wells Tannery, PA.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may urgently need serious medical intervention once they get alcohol or drug rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to determine if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Addiction rehabilitation for people with HIV/AIDS in Wells Tannery would include detox treatment which are responsibly administered with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same sober goal is encouraged.
