Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Toronto, OH.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore urgently need significant medical help once they get substance abuse rehab. Aside from rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation 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.

Drug or alcohol abuse treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS in Toronto would include detoxification services which are responsibly conducted with both the patient and the treatment staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling people with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same goal is encouraged.
