For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only essential for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue.
In many cases, people who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require serious medical help once they receive drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to see if they have any other problems 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.
