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

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug problem continue.

In many cases, individuals who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need serious medical intervention once they do get drug rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical evaluation to determine if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse rehab for persons with HIV/AIDS in Rockton can include detox treatment which are safely administered with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling individuals with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same goal is strongly recommended.
