Drug or alcohol treatment is sometimes a part of a criminal justice clients court sentence. In order to get these clients the treatment they need, there are a few specific steps that need to be followed before they can enroll into a drug rehab center. First, they need to determine if they are eligible for drug rehab while involved in the Newhall, Iowa 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 necessary. Additionally, when the client is evaluated for drug addiction problems, the client is also evaluated for mental health issues as well. Severity of addiction, mental health issues, criminal activity, sentence length and previous substance abuse history are all determining factors in the creation of the rehabilitation plan.
