Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Goreville, IL.

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

Often, people who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their health decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need serious medical intervention once they get substance abuse rehab. Aside from rehab for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a full medical assessment to determine if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Addiction rehabilitation for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Goreville includes detoxification services that are responsibly handled with both the patient and the staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same sober goal is recommended.
