Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Amelia, OH.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative 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 drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

Often, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require significant medical intervention once they receive substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical evaluation to determine if they have 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 disorders.
