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

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol problem continue.

Often, clients who battle with both issues concurrently may have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need significant medical intervention once they receive drug rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing 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 disorders.

Substance abuse rehab for persons with HIV or AIDS in Ellery can include detox services that are safely administered with both the client and the rehab 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 recovery meetings where other people have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
