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

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

In many cases, clients who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their health decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need significant medical intervention once they receive drug treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
