Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Union City, OH.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only essential for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others if their drug problem continue.

Often, individuals who fight with both issues concurrently have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS.
