CareSouth Carolina, through Care INNOVATIONS, provides local access to comprehensive HIV/AIDS primary health care services to residents of Chesterfield, Darlington, Lee and Marlboro Counties.   Those services include 

medical

Quality HIV/AIDS primary health care begins with ready access in the local community.  Not only that, CareSouth Carolina physicians and clinicians well-versed in the proper protocols deliver that care compassionately and confidentially in medical offices that provide services to more than just HIV/AIDS clients.  

pre and post test counseling

We offer voluntary testing and counseling and maintain confidential records.  We use an interactive model that focuses on a personalized HIV risk-reduction plan.

medications

Access to proper medications are essential to HIV/AIDS clients.  We not only provide for the proper regiment but also access to those without the financial ability  to obtain needed medications.

care management

At its core, our HIV/AIDS care is founded on a chronic care management  model.  By providing a care manager for clients, we ensure that they receive seamless services and the skills and opportunities that are required to manage their condition.  

behavioral health

One-on-one and group mental health counseling services are provided by counselors who understand the needs of HIV/AIDS clients. Counselors assist with everything from substance abuse to depression, and they provide the opportunity for clients to experience positive lifestyle changes. Like the medical care, these services are provided in an integrated primary care setting that alleviates the stigma associated with behavioral health services.

dental

Dental services, a crucial component of HIV/AIDS care, is provided through access and payment  for limited services.

transportation

We understand that the lack of transportation is sometimes a barrier to needed care, so we provide limited transportation services for clients.

outreach

We also understand that persons who are struggling with HIV/AIDS do not live in the medical office - they are out in our communities living day  to day lives.   We provide staff and resources to educate, assess and facilitate the use of services for  those out in the community.    

support groups

Programs for men, women, and children infected and affected by HIV/AIDS are crucial for clients and their families.  The programs focus on psycho-social issues impacted by the disease.   We also offer educational support groups.    

referrals

We make certain that needed services are received by clients who need them through a referral network that includes everything from specialist care to hospitalization.
