Drug or alcohol rehabilitation is sometimes a part of a criminal justice clients court sentence. In order to get these individuals the treatment 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 rehab during their time in the Dry Creek, Louisiana criminal justice system. Their case is evaluated by a panel who decides if they are in need of drug treatment services and if so how much and what type is needed. Additionally, when they are screened for drug addiction problems, the client is also screened for mental health issues as well. Severity of addiction, mental health problems, criminal activity, sentence length and previous treatment history are all determining factors in the creation of a criminal justice rehabilitation plan.
