Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Facilities - Livingston, IL.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug problem continue.

In many cases, individuals who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may urgently need critical medical help once they do get substance abuse treatment.

This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
