Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Programs - Choctaw, OK.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue.

In many cases, clients who struggle with both issues at the same time may have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore urgently need significant medical help once they get drug or alcohol addiction rehab. Aside from treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Addiction rehabilitation for persons with HIV or AIDS in Choctaw includes detoxification services which are safely administered with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other persons have the same goal is recommended.
