For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others in the case their drug problem continue.
Often, clients who fight with both issues at the same time have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need critical medical intervention once they get addiction rehab. Aside from rehab for their addiction, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
