Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Opdyke, IL.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only central for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their drug problem continue.

Often, people who battle with both issues concurrently have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require serious medical intervention once they do reach drug rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for individuals 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 tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
