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

For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only crucial for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

Often, clients who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require serious medical intervention once they do get substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical evaluation to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
