Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Daufuskie Island, SC.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only central for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.

In many cases, people who battle with both issues concurrently have let their health decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need critical medical help once they do reach drug or alcohol addiction rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for people 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 tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
