Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Mc Dermott, OH.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only essential for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others in the case their drug problem continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need significant medical help once they do reach substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical exam to see if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
