Our staff begins by assessing the scope and severity of the substance use and interrelated problems. In addition to patient interviews, assessment often includes input from the patient’s referring health-care provider, employer, family or others.

 

If the patient needs detoxification and/or inpatient treatment, a certified chemical-dependency professional completes a more extensive evaluation to measure the impact that substance use has had on:

  • Physical and emotional health

  • Relationships

  • Employment

  • Personal values

  • Legal responsibilities 

A complete medical examination and reports from other health-care professionals are also factored into the evaluation and treatment recommendations.
