For people with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehabilitation for their addiction. Getting this client in rehab is not only imperative for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others in the case their drug or alcohol issue continue or worsen.
In many cases, individuals who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their bodies decline because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some stop taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and therefore need critical medical help once they do reach alcohol or drug rehabilitation. Aside from treatment for their drug or alcohol addiction, in a facility which provides treatment for persons with HIV or AIDS, clients will get a medical assessment to see whether they are experiencing any other illnesses associated with their disease. This would include checking for tuberculosis, Hepatitis A, B, and C, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
