For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug or alcohol addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue.
Often, clients who battle with both issues at the same time may have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and may require significant medical help once they do reach substance abuse rehab. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a rehab center which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a full medical assessment to see if they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
