Criminal Justice Clients - Lake Elmo, Minnesota

Drug 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 specific steps that should be followed before they can enroll into a drug treatment program. First, they need to determine if they are eligible for drug rehab during their time in the Lake Elmo, Minnesota 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 required. Additionally, when the client is evaluated for drug addiction problems, the client is also screened for mental health problems as well. Severity of addiction, mental health problems, criminal activity, sentence length and previous substance abuse history are all determining factors in the creation of the rehabilitation plan.
