For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only essential for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.
Often, individuals who fight with both issues at the same time may have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require significant medical help once they receive alcohol or drug rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a full medical assessment to see if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
