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

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only essential for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug problem continue.

In many cases, individuals who struggle with both issues at the same time may have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require serious medical intervention once they get addiction rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to determine if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling people with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same goal is encouraged.
