For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.
In many cases, individuals who struggle with both issues concurrently have let their health decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may need critical medical intervention once they receive alcohol or drug treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical evaluation to see if they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
