For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only essential for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.
In many cases, people who battle with both issues at the same time may have let their health decline because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require significant medical intervention once they do get substance abuse treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical exam 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.
