For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only central for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol issue continue.
In many cases, individuals who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need critical medical intervention once they do get drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical evaluation to see whether they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
