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

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require serious medical intervention once they do reach alcohol or drug treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab center that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation to see whether they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
