Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Langston, OK.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug problem continue.

In many cases, people who fight with both issues concurrently may have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may urgently need serious medical help once they get addiction treatment. Aside from rehab for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to see if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
