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

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Getting this client in rehab is not only crucial 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 substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

Often, clients who fight with both issues concurrently may have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need serious medical help once they do reach substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab center that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Drug or alcohol abuse treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS in Lake Lynn would include detox services that are safely conducted with both the client and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other persons have the same sober goal is strongly recommended.
