For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.
Often, individuals who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require critical medical intervention once they get drug rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to see if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
