Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Lebanon, OH.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue.

Often, individuals who fight with both issues concurrently have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may urgently need significant medical help once they get alcohol or drug treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Substance abuse rehab for persons with HIV or AIDS in Lebanon can include detoxification treatment that are safely handled with both the patient and the treatment staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same sober goal is recommended.
