Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - New Lexington, OH.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, individuals who battle with both issues at the same time may have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS.
