For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in recovery is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their drug problem continue.
In many cases, individuals who fight with both issues at the same time have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require significant medical help once they do reach alcohol or drug treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical evaluation to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
