For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug issue continue or worsen.
Often, clients who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their bodies fall apart due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need significant medical help once they receive substance abuse rehab. Aside from rehab for their addiction, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation to determine if they have 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.
