Drug rehabilitation is sometimes a part of a criminal justice clients sentence for the crime they have committed. In order to get these individuals the rehabilitation they need, there are some steps that need to be followed before they can enroll into a recovery rehab program. First, they need to determine if they are eligible for drug rehab while involved in the Long Branch, New Jersey criminal justice system. Their case is reviewed by a panel who determines if they are in need of rehabilitation and if so how much and what type is necessary. Furthermore, when the client is evaluated 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 the rehabilitation plan.
