Alcohol and Drug Evaluation Georgia-AACS Atlanta

The primary purpose of an Alcohol and Drug Evaluation Georgia (sometimes referred to as a Substance Abuse Evaluation for Non-DUI clients is to comprehensively assess the symptoms present in the individual and consequently determine whether these constitute an addictive disease and/or co-occurring psychiatric disorder.

An Alcohol and Drug Evaluation Georgia is confidentially administered on an outpatient basis and assesses addictive behaviors for a variety of substances including methamphetamines, cocaine, heroin, marijuana, alcohol, and several others. Regardless of the specific substance(s) of abuse, the alcohol and drug evaluation assesses virtually every aspect of the individual’s substance abuse history and contributing factors, including medical, mental health, social, interpersonal, occupational, family, education, and legal history. This process is completed with the use of standardized psychometric tests and relevant corresponding documentation, such as court documents, medical history reports, and previous psychiatric or psychological assessments. Following the comprehensive interview process, the evaluation will conclude with a highly individualized accurate diagnosis and written report which will include suggested counseling options if and when necessary.
