For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight 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 substance abuse. Keeping this client in treatment is not only essential for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug issue continue.
In many cases, individuals who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need significant medical help once they receive substance abuse rehab. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical exam to determine if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
Substance abuse treatment for individuals with HIV/AIDS in Peoria includes detoxification treatment which are safely administered with both the patient and the treatment staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same sober goal is strongly recommended.
