For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in recovery is not only central for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their substance abuse problem continue.
Often, individuals who struggle with both issues concurrently may have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need significant medical intervention once they do reach drug treatment. Aside from rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a full medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
