For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others if their drug problem continue or worsen.

Often, people who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their health decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS.

This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
