Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Thompson, OH.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

Often, people who struggle with both issues concurrently may have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require critical medical intervention once they do get drug or alcohol addiction rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Addiction rehabilitation for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Thompson would include detox services which are responsibly administered with both the patient and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same sober goal is strongly recommended.
