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

For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their addiction. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only essential for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others if their substance abuse problem continue.

In many cases, clients who fight with both issues concurrently have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore urgently need serious medical intervention once they do get drug treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical evaluation 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.

Substance abuse treatment for people with HIV or AIDS in Westminster would include detox services that are responsibly conducted with both the client and the staff in mind. Through counseling, psychotherapy and holistic services persons with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be sober and healthier, and attending recovery meetings where other persons have the same goal is strongly recommended.
