Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - Wenona, 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 acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only essential for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require critical medical intervention once they do get drug rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a full medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Addiction rehab for people with HIV/AIDS in Wenona includes detoxification treatment which are safely handled with both the patient and the treatment staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same goal is strongly recommended.
