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

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only essential for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their substance abuse problem continue.

Often, people who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their health decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need significant medical intervention once they do reach substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a full medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
