For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.
Often, clients who struggle with both issues at the same time may have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need serious medical intervention once they do get addiction treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to see if they have any other illnesses 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.
