For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only central for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.
In many cases, people who fight with both issues at the same time have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require significant medical help once they do get addiction treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to see if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
