Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Bridgeport, OH.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only essential for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their drug or alcohol issue continue.

Often, individuals who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need significant medical intervention once they receive drug treatment. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical evaluation to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
