For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only crucial for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their drug issue continue or worsen.
In many cases, people who fight with both issues at the same time may have let their health fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore require serious medical help once they do reach drug treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical evaluation to see whether they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
