Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Oakbrook Terrace, IL.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug issue continue.

In many cases, clients who fight with both issues concurrently have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore urgently need critical medical help once they receive substance abuse rehab. Aside from treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to see if 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 rehabilitation for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Oakbrook Terrace would include detox services which are safely administered with both the client and the treatment staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling people with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other persons have the same goal is encouraged.
