Santé Center for Healing’s licensed assessment program offers a fair, precise, and objective investigation of the client in crisis. Data collected during the assessment is then used to determine the best level of care based upon the severity of the substance use disorder. Furthermore, the assessment allows trained behavioral health specialists to gauge the client’s ability to return to life/work, provide monitoring recommendations, and/or the necessity for them to seek further addiction treatment programs. This information is provided in a formal written report to the referral source within an agreed-upon timeframe.
At Santé Center for Healing, we offer comprehensive addiction treatment programs that can help you or a loved one break the cycle of addiction and discover a path toward recovery. Call today to get started.
