For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in treatment is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol problem continue.
In many cases, individuals who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time 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 stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require critical medical help once they do reach drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab center that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical evaluation to see if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
