Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Wilberforce, OH.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only crucial for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug problem continue.

Often, individuals who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require significant medical intervention once they do get alcohol or drug rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a full medical assessment to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse rehabilitation for persons with HIV/AIDS in Wilberforce would include detoxification treatment which are safely conducted with both the client and the treatment staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling people with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same goal is strongly recommended.
