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

For people 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 addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only central for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their drug issue continue.

Often, clients who fight with both issues concurrently may have let their health decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require serious medical help once they receive substance abuse treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
