Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Thomson, IL.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only central for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

Often, clients who battle with both issues at the same time may have let their bodies fall apart due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need critical medical intervention once they do reach addiction rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse rehab for individuals with HIV or AIDS in Thomson would include detox services which are responsibly handled with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
