For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only crucial for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their substance abuse issue continue.
Often, clients who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their health 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 medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require critical medical intervention once they do get alcohol or drug rehabilitation. Aside from rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction, in a rehabilitation center which provides treatment for individuals with HIV or AIDS, clients will receive a medical assessment to see whether they have any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health disorders.
