Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Programs - Standard, IL.

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

Often, individuals who battle with both issues concurrently may have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need serious medical intervention once they receive addiction rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive 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 problems.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehabilitation for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Standard includes detox services that are responsibly handled with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same sober goal is strongly recommended.
