Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Bridgeview, 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 acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Getting this client in treatment is not only central for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their drug issue continue.

In many cases, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need significant medical intervention once they receive drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to determine if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
