Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Richfield, OH.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only central for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol problem continue.

In many cases, clients who fight with both issues at the same time may have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may urgently need significant medical intervention once they get drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical exam to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
