Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Ingraham, IL.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only essential for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others if their substance abuse problem continue.

In many cases, people who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need significant medical help once they do get alcohol or drug rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical evaluation to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
