For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.
Often, people who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require significant medical intervention once they do reach drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical exam to see whether they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
