For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only central for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others in the case their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.
In many cases, people who fight with both issues at the same time may have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need significant medical help once they do get alcohol or drug rehab. Aside from treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to see if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
