For people with HIV or AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehab for their substance abuse. Keeping this client in rehab is not only central for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may transmit their disease to others in the case their substance abuse problem continue.
In many cases, individuals who battle with both issues at the same time may have let their bodies deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS. Some quit taking their medication, stop seeking medical care, etc. and may need critical medical help once they get drug or alcohol addiction rehabilitation.
