For people with HIV or AIDS who also battle with addiction, their pre-existing continuing medical condition is something that will need to be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their alcohol or drug addiction. Getting and keeping this client in treatment is not only central for their safety, but for the safety of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others if their drug problem continue.

In many cases, people who battle with both HIV/AIDS and addiction at the same time may have let their health fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions give themselves even when they are without HIV or AIDS.
