Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Marquette Heights, IL.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, 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. Keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol issue continue.

In many cases, individuals who battle with both issues at the same time have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need serious medical intervention once they do get drug or alcohol addiction rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical exam to determine if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
