For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug issue continue.
In many cases, people who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need critical medical intervention once they do get substance abuse rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical evaluation to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
