Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Hickory Hills, IL.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only central for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.

Often, clients who battle with both issues concurrently may have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may urgently need serious medical intervention once they get addiction treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a full medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other illnesses 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.

Addiction rehabilitation for persons with HIV/AIDS in Hickory Hills can include detox services which are safely conducted with both the patient and the treatment staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other persons have the same sober goal is recommended.
