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

For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others in the case their drug issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, clients who battle with both issues at the same time have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require serious medical intervention once they receive drug or alcohol addiction rehab. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a full medical assessment to see 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.

Drug or alcohol abuse treatment for persons with HIV/AIDS in Lamar would include detox services that are responsibly administered with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same sober goal is recommended.
