For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.
Often, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their bodies fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may urgently need serious medical help once they do get addiction treatment. Aside from rehab for their addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a full medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
