Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehabilitation Centers - Weatherford, OK.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in recovery is not only central for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their drug issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, people who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require critical medical intervention once they receive addiction treatment. Aside from rehab for their addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Addiction treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS in Weatherford would include detoxification treatment which are safely handled with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other persons have the same sober goal is recommended.
