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

For people with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol problem continue.

In many cases, individuals who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS.

Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
