Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Oakwood, IL.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only essential for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their drug issue continue.

In many cases, people who fight with both issues at the same time have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may urgently need serious medical help once they get drug rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical exam to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
