For persons with HIV or AIDS who also struggle with a substance abuse problem, their prior continuing medical condition is something that must be recognized and adequately addressed simultaneously while they receive rehab for their drug or alcohol addiction. Keeping this client in rehab is not only crucial for their safety, but for the good of the general public due to the fact they are likely to transmit their disease to others in the case their drug issue continue.

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