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

For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only essential for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue.

Often, clients who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need significant medical help once they do reach substance abuse rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical exam to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
