Drug or alcohol rehabilitation is sometimes a part of a criminal justice clients court sentence. 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 program. First, they need to find out if they are eligible for drug rehabilitation during their time in the Waterproof, Louisiana criminal justice system. Their case is evaluated by a panel who determines if they are in need of rehabilitation and if so how much and what type is required. Furthermore, when they are screened for drug addiction problems, the client is also evaluated for mental health problems as well. Severity of addiction, mental health issues, criminal activity, sentence length and previous treatment history are all determining factors in the creation of a criminal justice treatment plan.
