Drug or alcohol rehabilitation is sometimes a part of a criminal justice clients sentence for the crime they have committed. In order to provide these individuals the rehabilitation they need, there are a few specific steps that need to be followed before they can enroll into a drug rehabilitation facility. First, they need to determine if they are eligible for drug treatment during their time in the Barkhamsted, Connecticut criminal justice system. Their case is evaluated by a panel who determines if they are in need of treatment and if so how much and what type is required. Furthermore, when the client is screened for drug addiction problems, the client is also evaluated for mental health problems as well. Their drug addiction problem, mental health issues, criminal activity, sentence length and previous treatment history are all determining variables in the creation of the rehabilitation plan.
