Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Westmont, IL.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

Often, clients who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need serious medical help once they receive drug or alcohol addiction rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Addiction treatment for people with HIV or AIDS in Westmont would include detoxification treatment which are responsibly conducted with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same sober goal is encouraged.
