Persons with HIV or AIDS - Alcohol and Drug Rehabilitation Programs - Walhalla, SC.

For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only central for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their drug issue continue.

In many cases, people who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need critical medical intervention once they do reach drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to determine if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.

Drug or alcohol abuse rehab for persons with HIV or AIDS in Walhalla can include detoxification services that are responsibly handled with both the client and the rehab staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services individuals with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other persons have the same goal is encouraged.
