For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction. Keeping this client in rehab 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 should their drug issue continue.
Often, clients who struggle with both issues concurrently may have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require significant medical intervention once they receive addiction rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical evaluation to see if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
