Drug or alcohol rehabilitation is sometimes a part of a criminal justice clients court sentence. In order to provide these individuals the rehabilitation they need, there are some specific steps that should be followed before they can enroll into a recovery rehab center. First, they need to find out if they are eligible for drug rehabilitation while involved in the Ryland Heights, Kentucky criminal justice system. Their case is evaluated by a panel who decides if they are in need of drug treatment services and if so how much and what type is required. Additionally, when they are screened for substance abuse problems, the client is also screened for mental health problems as well. Severity of addiction, mental health problems, criminal activity, sentence length and previous treatment history are all determining factors in the creation of a criminal justice treatment plan.
