Evaluations and Assessments

What Evaluations Do You Provide?

At Another Chance, we understand that accurate and thorough evaluations are essential for determining the appropriate course of action for individuals dealing with substance abuse. Whether for legal purposes, employment requirements, or personal reasons, our professional substance abuse assessments are designed to meet various needs with precision and care.

Our substance abuse assessments are conducted by licensed professionals who specialize in addiction treatment. These evaluations are critical for individuals who need to fulfill court orders, employment mandates, or other formal obligations. The assessment process is thorough, ensuring that all aspects of the individual's substance use and related behaviors are examined.

For a fee of $300, we offer an "Assessment Only" service. This service is ideal for those who need to comply with legal or employment requirements without necessarily pursuing further treatment. This upfront cost covers the complete assessment process, and it is important to note that insurance billing is not applicable for this standalone service.

30-Day Evaluation Period

In certain cases, our counselors may recommend a 30-day evaluation period. This extended evaluation includes:

Random Urine Analysis (UA): To monitor substance use and ensure abstinence during the evaluation period.

Collateral Information Gathering: We collect information from external sources, such as family members, employers, or other healthcare providers, to gain a comprehensive understanding of the individual's situation.

This 30-day period allows us to accurately assess the need for substance abuse treatment and to tailor our recommendations accordingly. It provides a clearer picture of the individual's substance use patterns and their ability to maintain sobriety in a less controlled environment.
