For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their substance abuse. Getting this client in treatment is not only central for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others in the case their drug problem continue or worsen.
Often, people who battle with both issues concurrently may have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require significant medical intervention once they do reach addiction treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical exam to see if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
