For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others in the case their substance abuse problem continue.
In many cases, individuals who fight with both issues concurrently have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may urgently need significant medical intervention once they get drug rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical evaluation to see if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
