Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Treatment Programs - Jamestown, SC.

For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol problem continue.

Often, clients who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies fall apart due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may urgently need significant medical intervention once they do reach substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a full medical assessment to see whether they have any other illnesses 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.

Substance abuse rehabilitation for persons with HIV or AIDS in Jamestown includes detoxification services that are responsibly handled with both the client and the treatment staff in mind. Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling people with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending self-help groups where other people have the same sober goal is strongly recommended.
