For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only essential for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol problem continue.
In many cases, people who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their bodies fall apart due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medicine, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need serious medical intervention once they receive alcohol or drug rehab. Aside from rehabilitation for their addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will get a full medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing 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 disorders.
