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

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Getting this client in recovery is not only central for their safety, 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 issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who fight with both issues at the same time may have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need significant medical intervention once they do reach alcohol or drug treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Addiction treatment for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Wasco includes detox services which are responsibly administered with both the patient and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other individuals have the same goal is strongly encouraged.
