For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative 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 in the case their drug or alcohol problem continue.
In many cases, clients who fight with both issues concurrently have let their health decline because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore urgently need serious medical intervention once they do reach addiction rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical exam to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
