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

For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their substance abuse. Getting this client in rehab is not only essential for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol problem continue.

Often, clients who struggle with both issues concurrently have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need significant medical intervention once they do get addiction treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical evaluation to see whether they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
