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

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only essential for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need significant medical intervention once they get addiction treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab center which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical exam to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehab for individuals with HIV or AIDS in Westland includes detoxification services which are responsibly conducted with both the client and the treatment staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same goal is strongly encouraged.
