Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Programs - Roundhead, OH.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require critical medical intervention once they receive substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to determine if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Addiction rehabilitation for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Roundhead can include detoxification services which are responsibly administered with both the patient and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
