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