Drug treatment is sometimes a part of a criminal justice clients sentence for the crime they have committed. In order to get these individuals the rehabilitation they need, there are some steps that should be followed before they can enroll into a drug rehab center. First, they need to determine if they are eligible for drug treatment while involved in the Ridgely, Tennessee criminal justice system. Their case is evaluated by a panel who decides if they are in need of rehabilitation and if so how much and what type is needed. Additionally, when the client is evaluated for drug addiction problems, the client is also screened for mental health issues as well. Their drug addiction problem, mental health issues, criminal activity, sentence length and previous substance abuse history are all determining variables in the creation of a criminal justice rehabilitation plan.
