Drug treatment is sometimes a part of a criminal justice clients sentence for the crime they have committed. In order to get these clients the rehabilitation they need, there are a few specific steps that need to be followed before they can enroll into a recovery rehabilitation facility. First, they need to determine if they are eligible for drug rehabilitation while involved in the Smithfield, Virginia criminal justice system. Their case is reviewed by a panel who makes the decision 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 substance abuse history are all determining variables in the creation of a criminal justice rehabilitation plan.
