Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Irondale, OH.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only central for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their drug problem continue.

In many cases, people who battle with both issues at the same time may have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may urgently need critical medical help once they do reach drug treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to determine if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Addiction rehabilitation for people with HIV/AIDS in Irondale can include detoxification treatment which are responsibly conducted with both the client and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same goal is encouraged.
