Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Ava, IL.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only central for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

Often, clients who battle with both issues concurrently have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require significant medical intervention once they get alcohol or drug rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehab for people with HIV or AIDS in Ava would include detox services which are safely administered with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same sober goal is strongly recommended.
