Alcohol and Substance Abuse Treatment
Alcohol & Drug Evaluation
The Drug and Alcohol Evaluation includes a clinical component, using a standardized psychosocial assessment tool, and a detailed, written report describing the results. Also known as screening or assessment, the alcohol and drug evaluation process leads to an accurate diagnosis along with recommendations designed to help individuals make informed decisions about the next step. The Drug and Alcohol Evaluation Counselor provides a preliminary diagnosis of an individual's chemical dependency, if appropriate, and recommendations for treatment modalities which may be indicated to address specific needs. This service is often used as a referral or disposition resource by the Courts, Family Services, schools and other third parties. Recommendations may include addiction treatment, if warranted, or referrals to physical and mental health practitioners, family counselors, or other helping professionals.
