Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - German Valley, IL.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug issue continue.

In many cases, clients who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require serious medical help once they do reach substance abuse treatment. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to see whether they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Drug or alcohol abuse treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS in German Valley would include detoxification treatment which are safely conducted with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling individuals with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same goal is strongly recommended.
