Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Shipman, IL.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only central for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol issue continue.

In many cases, clients who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may 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, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require significant medical intervention once they do get addiction rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to see whether they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehab for people with HIV/AIDS in Shipman includes detox services that are safely administered with both the patient and the treatment staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling individuals with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same goal is recommended.
