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

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, individuals who battle with both issues concurrently may have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need serious medical help once they receive drug or alcohol addiction rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical evaluation to determine if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
