Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Du Quoin, IL.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Getting this client in recovery is not only essential for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

Often, clients who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may urgently need serious medical intervention once they do reach drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
