For persons with HIV or AIDS who also battle with a substance abuse problem, their prior chronic medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only essential for their well-being, but for the safety of the general public due to the fact they are likely to spread their disease to others if their substance abuse problem continue.

Often, people who battle with both issues at the same time may have let their health decline because of the lack of care most addicted individuals give themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS.
