Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Millbrook, IL.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in treatment is not only central for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug problem continue or worsen.

Often, clients who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need serious medical intervention once they do get substance abuse treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical evaluation to see whether they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Addiction rehab for persons with HIV/AIDS in Millbrook would include detoxification services that are responsibly conducted with both the patient and the treatment staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
