For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their drug addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only crucial 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 substance abuse problem continue.
Often, people who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their bodies deteriorate due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require significant medical help once they do get drug treatment. Aside from rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to see if they have any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
