Getting this client in recovery is not only central for their safety, but for the good of the public due to the fact they may spread their disease to others if their substance abuse problem continue or worsen.

Often, clients who struggle with both issues concurrently have let their health deteriorate because of the lack of care most addicted individuals show themselves even when they don't have HIV or AIDS.
