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

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

Often, people who struggle with both issues at the same time have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS.
