Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Facilities - Patoka, IL.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their substance abuse problem continue.

In many cases, individuals who battle with both issues at the same time have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need serious medical intervention once they do reach drug treatment. Aside from treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical evaluation to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehab for persons with HIV/AIDS in Patoka would include detoxification services which are safely conducted with both the client and the treatment staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling individuals with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other persons have the same goal is recommended.
