Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Ashmore, IL.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only essential for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug or alcohol issue continue.

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

Substance abuse rehabilitation for persons with HIV or AIDS in Ashmore would include detox treatment that are safely administered with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other persons have the same sober goal is strongly recommended.
