Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Facilities - Thackerville, OK.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others in the case their drug issue continue or worsen.

Often, individuals who struggle with both issues at the same time have let their health decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need critical medical intervention once they do reach substance abuse treatment. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical exam to see if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
