Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Berlin Center, OH.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, people who fight with both issues at the same time have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require significant medical help once they receive substance abuse rehab. Aside from rehab for their drug addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical evaluation to see whether they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse treatment for persons with HIV/AIDS in Berlin Center can include detox treatment which are responsibly conducted with both the patient and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people 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.
