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

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug issue continue.

In many cases, people who fight with both issues at the same time 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. Most stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need critical medical help once they get drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
