For persons with HIV/AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that will need to be acknowledged and addressed simultaneously while they receive treatment for their drug addiction. Getting this client in treatment is not only essential for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others if their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.

Often, clients who struggle with both issues concurrently 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.
