Drug 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 drug rehab facility. First, they need to find out if they are eligible for drug rehab during their time in the Chester, Massachusetts 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 needed. 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 treatment history are all determining factors in the creation of the treatment plan.
