Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Hanover Park, IL.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol problem continue.

Often, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need significant medical help once they do get drug rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical assessment to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
