Assessment for Substance Use Disorders
Central Intake/Assessment for Substance Use Disorders
Programs that serve as gatekeeper agencies which evaluate individuals who are in need of services related to an alcohol or other drug use disorder and triage them for the limited number of subsidized beds that may be available in the community. Some programs may also offer medical detoxification services for people who need them.
General Assessment for Substance Use Disorders
Programs that evaluate individuals who may have a drug and/or alcohol use disorder to determine the nature and extent of the problem; and which may make a recommendation regarding treatment or may refer the individual to a specific program. The service does not include a centralized triage function within the community or a formal relationship with the courts.
Substance Use Disorder Treatment Orders
Programs that conduct investigations to determine whether an individual is endangered by a drug or alcohol use disorder. The program may request an order for involuntary treatment if the person is found to be at risk of self harm or harm to another in situations where all voluntary options have been exhausted. Substance use disorder treatment orders are issued by the court following a hearing which is held to examine the evidence and to consider the testimony of people involved in the situation. In the case of juveniles younger than age 18, the order may also include instructions which authorize the apprehension of the youth and confinement in a protective setting for detoxification and/or further assessment.
