Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Edgemoor, SC.

For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only crucial for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue.

Often, people who struggle with both issues at the same time have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need critical medical help once they do reach drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical assessment to see whether they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
