For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.
Often, individuals who fight with both issues concurrently have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require critical medical intervention once they get drug treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
