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

For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who battle with both issues at the same time may have let their health fall apart 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, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may urgently need significant medical intervention once they get alcohol or drug rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing 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 problems.
