For persons 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 adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Getting this client in recovery is not only central for their safety, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their drug problem continue or worsen.
Often, individuals who battle with both issues at the same time have let their health decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require serious medical help once they do reach alcohol or drug rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their drug addiction, in a facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, they will get a medical exam to determine if they have any other problems associated with their disease. This would include screening for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
