For people with HIV/AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only central for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others in the case their drug problem continue or worsen.
In many cases, individuals who struggle with both issues concurrently may have let their health deteriorate because of 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 may require critical medical intervention once they do reach addiction treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical exam to see whether they have any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
