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

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only essential for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who battle with both issues concurrently may have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore urgently need serious medical intervention once they get drug rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical exam to determine if they have 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.

Drug or alcohol abuse treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS in Potomac can include detoxification treatment that are responsibly conducted with both the patient and the treatment staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
