For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their substance abuse problem continue.

In many cases, individuals who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS.

Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation to see whether they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
