Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Ostrander, OH.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their drug or alcohol issue continue.

Often, people who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need critical medical intervention once they do reach drug rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a full medical assessment to see whether they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Substance abuse rehab for individuals with HIV or AIDS in Ostrander can include detox services which are responsibly conducted with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other persons have the same sober goal is recommended.
