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

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their alcohol or drug 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 are likely to spread their disease to others if their drug problem continue.

Often, individuals who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need critical medical intervention once they do reach drug treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation to see if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Substance abuse rehabilitation for people with HIV or AIDS in Roxana includes detoxification services that are safely handled with both the client and the staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same goal is strongly recommended.
