For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only essential for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.
In many cases, clients who battle with both issues at the same time have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require significant medical intervention once they get drug rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical exam to see if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
