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 acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only central for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug issue continue or worsen.
Often, people who fight with both issues at the same time may have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need serious medical intervention once they do get substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical assessment to determine if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
