For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their alcohol or drug addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only central for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others should their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.
In many cases, clients who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Many stop taking their medicine, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need significant medical intervention once they do get drug treatment. Aside from rehab for their addiction, in a rehabilitation facility that provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical exam to see if they are experiencing 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 problems.
