Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Willow Grove, PA.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only essential for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue.

In many cases, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may urgently need critical medical intervention once they do reach drug rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to see whether they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Substance abuse treatment for people with HIV or AIDS in Willow Grove can include detox services 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 recovery meetings where other persons have the same goal is recommended.
