For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only central for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol issue continue.
In many cases, people who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require serious medical help once they do get substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation 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.
Drug or alcohol abuse rehabilitation for people with HIV or AIDS in Hartsville would include detox services which 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 sober goal is strongly recommended.
