Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Gilberts, IL.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in rehab is not only essential for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, people who battle with both issues concurrently may have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need critical medical help once they receive drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
