Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Facilities - Myrtle, MS.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only essential for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol issue continue.

In many cases, clients who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require critical medical help once they get drug rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a full medical assessment to see whether they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.

Substance abuse rehab for people with HIV/AIDS in Myrtle can include detox services that are safely handled with both the patient and the staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling persons with HIV or AIDS become inspired to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other persons have the same goal is strongly encouraged.
