Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Rocky Ridge, OH.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in rehab is not only essential for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol problem continue.

In many cases, people who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require serious medical intervention once they get drug or alcohol addiction rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to see whether they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
