Getting this client in treatment is not only imperative 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 drug problem continue.

Often, individuals who fight with both issues at the same time have let their health deteriorate due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS.
