Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Fittstown, OK.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting 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 transmit their disease to others in the case their drug problem continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may urgently need critical medical intervention once they do reach substance abuse rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
