Drug or alcohol treatment is sometimes a part of a criminal justice clients court sentence. In order to provide these individuals the treatment they need, there are a few steps that should be followed before they can enroll into a recovery rehabilitation facility. First, they need to determine if they are eligible for drug rehabilitation during their time in the Pickens, South Carolina criminal justice system. Their case is evaluated by a panel who decides if they are in need of treatment and if so how much and what type is required. Furthermore, when the client is evaluated for substance abuse problems, the client is also screened for mental health problems as well. Their drug addiction problem, mental health issues, criminal activity, sentence length and previous substance abuse history are all determining variables in the creation of a criminal justice rehabilitation plan.
