Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Pomeroy, OH.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.

Often, clients who battle with both issues concurrently may have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need critical medical intervention once they get substance abuse rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to see whether they have any other problems associated with their disease. 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 individuals with HIV or AIDS in Pomeroy would include detox services that are safely administered with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same sober goal is recommended.
