Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Wichita Falls, TX.

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 treatment for their addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.

In many cases, individuals who battle with both issues concurrently 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. Most quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may urgently need serious medical intervention once they do get substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical evaluation to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Substance abuse rehab for persons with HIV or AIDS in Wichita Falls can include detox services which are responsibly administered with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services people with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same sober goal is strongly encouraged.
