Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - West Newton, PA.

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

In many cases, clients who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need significant medical help once they do reach substance abuse rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical exam to determine if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same goal is recommended.
