Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Treatment Facilities - Washington, OK.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only central for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, people who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their health decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need serious medical intervention once they do get drug rehab. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
