For people with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others should their drug or alcohol problem continue or worsen.
In many cases, clients who struggle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently may have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore require serious medical intervention once they get drug treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol problem, in a rehabilitation facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical exam to determine if they have 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.
