For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, 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 or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only essential for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others in the case their drug issue continue or worsen.
Often, individuals who battle with both issues concurrently may have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may urgently need significant medical help once they get substance abuse treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical assessment to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
