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

For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Getting this client in rehab is not only imperative for their safety, 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 or worsen.

In many cases, clients who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need serious medical help once they get drug rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical exam to determine if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Addiction rehabilitation for people with HIV/AIDS in Willowick includes detoxification services that are responsibly handled 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 recovery meetings where other individuals have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
