Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Bonfield, IL.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only essential for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue.

Often, individuals who fight with both issues at the same time have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need critical medical help once they receive substance abuse treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a full medical assessment to see if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Substance abuse rehab for individuals with HIV or AIDS in Bonfield would include detoxification treatment which are safely handled with both the client and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same goal is recommended.
