For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in rehab is not only crucial for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.
In many cases, individuals who struggle with both issues at the same time have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require significant medical help once they do reach alcohol or drug treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation to see if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.

Through holistic services, psychotherapy and counseling individuals with HIV or AIDS become motivated to be healthier, sober, and happier, and attending recovery meetings where other people have the same goal is strongly recommended.
