Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Highwood, 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 addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their well-being, 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 problem continue.

Often, individuals who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require significant medical intervention once they receive substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical evaluation to see if they are experiencing 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.

Substance abuse rehabilitation for persons with HIV/AIDS in Highwood would include detox services that are safely conducted with both the patient and the treatment staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same goal is strongly recommended.
