For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only crucial for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug issue continue.
Often, clients who struggle with both issues concurrently may have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore urgently need significant medical help once they do get substance abuse treatment. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical exam to determine if they are experiencing any other problems 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 disorders.
