Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Sycamore, OH.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction. Keeping this client in recovery 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 should their drug issue continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need critical medical intervention once they do reach substance abuse treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical exam to see if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehab for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Sycamore would include detoxification services that are responsibly handled with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same sober goal is recommended.
