Getting and keeping this client in rehab is not only imperative for their well-being, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others in the case their substance abuse issue continue.

Often, individuals 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.
