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 treatment for their substance abuse. Getting this client in rehab is not only crucial for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others in the case their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.
In many cases, clients who fight with both issues concurrently have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require critical medical intervention once they receive drug or alcohol addiction rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical evaluation to see whether they are experiencing any other illnesses 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.
