Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Centers - Fort Towson, OK.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only central for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their drug problem continue or worsen.

Often, people who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need serious medical help once they do reach drug treatment. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a full medical assessment to see whether they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same goal is strongly recommended.
