Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehab Centers - Gotebo, OK.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others if their drug or alcohol problem continue.

Often, people who battle with both issues concurrently 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. Most stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need serious medical intervention once they get substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to see whether they have any other problems 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 problems.
