Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - New Concord, OH.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others if their drug issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who battle with both issues concurrently have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need serious medical help once they do get drug or alcohol addiction rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Drug or alcohol abuse treatment for persons with HIV/AIDS in New Concord includes detoxification services which are responsibly administered with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling individuals with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same goal is strongly encouraged.
