Drug or alcohol rehabilitation is sometimes a part of a criminal justice clients sentence for the crime they have committed. In order to provide these individuals the treatment they need, there are a few specific steps that need to be followed before they can enroll into a drug rehab program. First, they need to determine if they are eligible for drug rehab while involved in the Pachuta, Mississippi 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. Furthermore, when they are screened for drug addiction problems, the client is also screened for mental health issues as well. Severity of addiction, mental health issues, criminal activity, sentence length and previous treatment history are all determining variables in the creation of the rehabilitation plan.
