Merrimac - Criminal Justice Clients

Drug or alcohol treatment is sometimes a part of a criminal justice clients court sentence. In order to provide these individuals the treatment they need, there are some specific steps that should be followed before they can enroll into a drug rehabilitation center. First, they need to find out if they are eligible for drug rehabilitation while involved in the Merrimac, Massachusetts criminal justice system. Their case is reviewed by a panel who determines if they are in need of treatment and if so how much and what type is needed. Furthermore, when they are evaluated for drug addiction 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 treatment plan.
