Being diagnosed with HIV/AIDS may trigger drug abuse, or risky sexual conduct because of drug use could possibly have caused the person to contract the illness. People who have HIV/AIDS, either as a result of their substance abuse or as a pre-existing problem before their drug abuse problem, often require rehab services tailored to meet their particular demands and problems. Many of these problems are physical in nature, because of the fact that drug users with HIV/AIDS rarely look after themselves and take the appropriate medicines they need to maintain their own health. Because of this, these individuals arrive to rehab in very poor health and this will have to be handled as a priority whilst addressing other important concerns. In addition to the obvious requirement to deliver medical solutions during rehabilitation, people with HIV/AIDS also have to tackle more deeply rooted problems which prompted their alcohol or drug use. Very often, people have conditions within their lives that are purely environmental which may have caused them to use drugs or alcohol, including oppressive conditions within their lives or negative relationships. These are the issues which treatment professionals will give attention to as part of HIV/AIDS rehab services.
