For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in treatment is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others in the case their drug problem continue.
Often, individuals who battle with both issues concurrently may have let their health decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require serious medical help once they do reach drug or alcohol addiction rehab. Aside from rehab for their addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to determine if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
