For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their drug issue continue or worsen.
Often, individuals who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their health decline because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need critical medical help once they get drug rehab. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
Substance abuse rehabilitation for persons with HIV or AIDS in Evanston would include detoxification treatment that are safely conducted with both the patient and the staff in mind.
