Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Centers - West Point, IL.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only essential for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others if their drug problem continue.

Often, individuals who battle with both issues at the same time have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need significant medical help once they do get addiction rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical evaluation to see whether they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Addiction rehab for people with HIV/AIDS in West Point includes detox services which are responsibly handled with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling individuals with HIV or AIDS can become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same sober goal is strongly recommended.
