Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Leetonia, OH.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, people who fight with both issues concurrently may have let their health decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need serious medical intervention once they do reach addiction rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical exam to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Substance abuse treatment for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Leetonia includes detox treatment which are responsibly administered with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other persons have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
