For persons with HIV or AIDS who also fight with addiction, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others in the case their substance abuse issue continue or worsen.
In many cases, people who battle with both issues at the same time have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS. Most stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may require serious medical intervention once they do get drug or alcohol addiction treatment. Aside from rehabilitation for their drug addiction, in a rehab facility which provides treatment for people with HIV or AIDS, they will receive a medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other problems associated with their diagnosis. This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
