Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Facilities - Rock Island, IL.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab 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 if their drug problem continue.

Often, individuals who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their bodies fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may urgently need serious medical intervention once they get alcohol or drug rehab. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical evaluation to determine if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
