For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their substance abuse. 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 transmit their disease to others if their substance abuse issue continue.
In many cases, clients who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require critical medical help once they do reach drug rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical exam to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
