For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with addiction, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only essential for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug issue continue.
In many cases, people who battle with both issues at the same time have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need significant medical help once they do get drug or alcohol addiction rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their addiction, in a rehab center that provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to see whether they have any other problems 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.
