For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only central for their safety, but for the good of the 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 HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS.

This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
