Getting this client in treatment is not only crucial for their well-being, but for the good of the public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others in the case their drug problem continue.

Often, clients who struggle with both issues concurrently may have let their bodies fall apart because of the lack of care most people with addictions show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS.
