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

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Getting this client in treatment is not only essential for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their drug issue continue.

Often, clients who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need significant medical help once they do get substance abuse treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation to determine if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Addiction treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS in Manchester would include detox services which are safely administered with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same goal is recommended.
