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

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Getting this client in recovery is not only essential for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue.

In many cases, people who battle with both issues concurrently may have let their health decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require serious medical help once they receive substance abuse treatment. Aside from rehab for their addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical evaluation to see if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
