For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only essential for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others should their drug problem continue.
Often, individuals who struggle with both issues at the same time may have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need critical medical intervention once they get substance abuse rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a full medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
