For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.
In many cases, individuals who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require critical medical intervention once they get drug rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation to determine if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
