For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their drug addiction. Keeping this client in recovery is not only essential for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug or alcohol issue continue.
Often, individuals who struggle with both issues at the same time may have let their health decline due to the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need serious medical intervention once they receive alcohol or drug treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to determine if they are experiencing any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
