Persons with HIV or AIDS - Drug and Alcohol Rehab Centers - Little Mountain, SC.

For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol problem continue.

Often, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction 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.

Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical evaluation to determine if 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.
