For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only central for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their substance abuse issue continue.
In many cases, clients who fight with both issues concurrently may have let their health decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require critical medical help once they do reach drug or alcohol addiction rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
