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

For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only crucial for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who fight with both issues at the same time have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need serious medical intervention once they do reach alcohol or drug rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Addiction rehabilitation for persons with HIV/AIDS in New Lenox would include detoxification treatment that are safely administered with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same goal is strongly encouraged.
