For persons with HIV/AIDS who also fight with a substance abuse problem, their pre-existing chronic medical condition is something that must be acknowledged and adequately addressed at the same time they receive rehabilitation for their drug/alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others in the case their drug problem continue or worsen.

Often, clients who fight with both HIV/AIDS and addiction concurrently have let their bodies decline due to the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS.
