For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in recovery is not only essential for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol issue continue.
Often, clients who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time 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. Most quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need critical medical intervention once they get drug rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to determine if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
