For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only crucial for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others in the case their drug issue continue or worsen.
In many cases, clients who fight with both issues at the same time 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 medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore urgently need significant medical help once they do reach substance abuse treatment. Aside from rehab for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical evaluation to see whether they have any other illnesses 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 problems.
