Drug treatment is sometimes a part of a criminal justice clients court sentence. In order to get these clients the rehabilitation they need, there are some specific steps that need to be followed before they can enroll into a recovery rehab center. First, they need to determine if they are eligible for drug rehab while involved in the Nyack, New York criminal justice system. Their case is reviewed by a panel who decides if they are in need of rehabilitation and if so how much and what type is needed. Furthermore, when they are screened for substance abuse problems, the client is also screened 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 rehabilitation plan.
