Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Somerset, OH.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others in the case their substance abuse issue continue.

Often, clients who struggle with both issues concurrently have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need serious medical help once they do get substance abuse treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a full medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
