For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others in the case their substance abuse issue continue.
Often, people who fight with both issues concurrently have let their bodies 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, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore urgently need serious medical intervention once they receive substance abuse rehab. Aside from rehab for their drug addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical evaluation to determine if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
