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

For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only essential for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need serious medical intervention once they do reach substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a full medical assessment to see whether they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Addiction rehabilitation for persons with HIV or AIDS in Ewing can include detox treatment that are safely administered with both the patient and the staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling individuals with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same goal is strongly recommended.
