Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Massillon, OH.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only essential for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others if their drug issue continue.

Often, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require significant medical help once they do get drug or alcohol addiction rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Substance abuse rehabilitation for people with HIV/AIDS in Massillon would include detox services which are safely conducted with both the client and the 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 people have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
