Being diagnosed with HIV/AIDS may trigger drug or alcohol use, or risky sexual conduct because of drug abuse might have caused the person to contract the sickness. People who have HIV/AIDS, either as a result of their drug use or as a pre-existing problem just before their substance abuse issue, often require treatment services tailored to fulfill their specific demands and problems. Many of these problems are physical in nature, due to the fact that drug users with HIV/AIDS almost never care for themselves and take the appropriate medications they need to maintain their own health. Consequently, they arrive to treatment in very poor physical shape and this will have to be addressed as a priority whilst addressing other important issues. Besides the obvious necessity to deliver medical solutions during rehabilitation, people with HIV/AIDS also have to deal with more deeply rooted problems which prompted their drug or alcohol use. Very often, people have conditions within their lives which are strictly environmental which may have triggered them to turn to alcohol or drugs, like oppressive conditions in their lives or negative relationships. These are the issues which rehab professionals will focus on as part of HIV/AIDS rehabilitation services.
