For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only essential for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.
Often, clients who fight with both issues concurrently may have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need critical medical intervention once they do reach drug or alcohol addiction rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical exam to see whether they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
