Drug or alcohol treatment is sometimes a part of a criminal justice clients court sentence. In order to get these individuals the rehabilitation they need, there are a few specific steps that should be followed before they can enroll into a recovery treatment facility. First, they need to determine if they are eligible for drug treatment during their time in the Mount Auburn, Iowa criminal justice system. Their case is evaluated by a panel who determines if they are in need of drug treatment services and if so how much and what type is required. Additionally, when they are screened for drug addiction problems, the client is also evaluated for mental health issues as well. Severity of addiction, mental health concerns, criminal activity, sentence length and previous substance abuse history are all determining variables in the creation of the treatment plan.
