Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Jefferson, OH.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol issue continue.

Often, people who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need critical medical intervention once they do get drug rehab. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
