Why assessment is an important first step

A clinical assessment provides a structured opportunity to discuss the concerns that prompted someone to seek help. It can consider substance use, mental health, daily functioning, and circumstances that may affect outpatient participation. The goal is to gather relevant information rather than assume that one program suits every adult.

A clinical assessment considers your needs before program recommendations
Assessment does not assume one program fits every adult

River City Recovery offers both clinical and medical assessments among its services. Assessment information can help guide recommendations about a level of care and supporting services. It does not guarantee admission, a particular program placement, or an outcome. Recommendations depend on identified needs and what the facility can appropriately provide.
