For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only essential for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others if their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.
Often, clients who battle with both issues at the same time have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most quit taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require significant medical help once they do reach drug or alcohol addiction rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical exam to determine if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, diabetes, dental issues, other STDs and mental health disorders.
