For persons with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only central for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others if their substance abuse issue continue.
Often, people who struggle with both issues concurrently may have let their health decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may urgently need critical medical help once they do get substance abuse treatment. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical evaluation to determine if they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
