Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Centers - Folly Beach, SC.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only central for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others if their drug problem continue or worsen.

Often, people who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health decline because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require significant medical help once they do reach addiction rehab. Aside from rehab for their drug addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.

Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS can become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same sober goal is encouraged.
