For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in treatment is not only central 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 or worsen.
In many cases, clients who fight with both issues at the same time have let their bodies fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need serious medical intervention once they do get addiction treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical assessment to see whether they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
Substance abuse rehabilitation for people with HIV or AIDS in Columbus would include detox services which are safely administered with both the client and the treatment staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same sober goal is encouraged.
