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

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only crucial for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol problem continue.

In many cases, individuals who battle with both issues at the same time may have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need serious medical help once they do get addiction treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to determine if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehabilitation for people with HIV or AIDS in Godfrey would include detox treatment which are responsibly handled with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling individuals with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
