For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only central for their well-being, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others if their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.
Often, people who battle 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. Most quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need significant medical intervention once they receive drug or alcohol addiction rehabilitation. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical evaluation to determine if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health problems.
