For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.
Often, people who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require significant medical intervention once they get drug treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical evaluation to determine if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
