For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their substance abuse problem continue.
Often, individuals who struggle with both issues concurrently have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may urgently need significant medical help once they do reach substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to determine if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
