Drug or alcohol rehabilitation is sometimes a part of a criminal justice clients sentence for the crime they have committed. In order to get these clients the treatment they need, there are some steps that need to be followed before they can enroll into a drug or alcohol rehabilitation facility. First, they need to find out if they are eligible for drug rehabilitation while involved in the Pleasant Plains, Arkansas 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 substance abuse problems, the client is also screened for mental health problems as well. Severity of addiction, mental health concerns, criminal activity, sentence length and previous treatment history are all determining variables in the creation of a criminal justice rehabilitation plan.
