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 addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others in the case their drug problem continue.
Often, clients 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 give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may urgently need significant medical help once they do get drug rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical exam to see if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
