ASSESSMENT
Santé Center for Healing’s Professional Assessment Program offers a fair,
precise, and objective investigation of the professional in crisis. This
challenge is met with extensive monitoring and evaluation through either a 72 or
96 hour assessment. This data is then used to gauge the professional’s ability
to return to work, provide monitoring recommendations, or the necessity for
him/her to seek further treatment. This information is provided in a formal
written report to the referral source within 14 days.
