For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with addiction, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their addiction. Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only central for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others in the case their substance abuse problem continue.

In many cases, people who battle with both issues concurrently may 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, don't go to the Doctor, etc. and therefore need serious medical help once they do reach alcohol or drug rehab.

This would include screening for Hepatitis A, B, and C, tuberculosis, other sexually transmitted diseases, dental issues, diabetes and mental health problems.
