Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Programs - Perry, OK.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic 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 treatment is not only central for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others in the case their drug problem continue.

Often, individuals who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require serious medical intervention once they do get drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical exam to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Addiction rehab for individuals with HIV or AIDS in Perry includes detox treatment that are responsibly conducted with both the client and the treatment staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling people with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other individuals have the same goal is strongly encouraged.
