For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only essential for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others in the case their drug problem continue or worsen.
Often, people who struggle with both issues at the same time have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require serious medical intervention once they get drug or alcohol addiction rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical evaluation to see if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
