At MaxCare Psychology, we provide professional Drug & Alcohol Assessments across Australia to support employers, legal professionals, and individuals in making informed, evidence-based decisions. These assessments help determine the extent of substance use, its impact on daily functioning or workplace safety, and the steps required for recovery and support.
What is a Drug & Alcohol Assessment?
A Drug & Alcohol Assessment is an independent evaluation conducted by a registered psychologist. It examines an individual’s substance use history, current patterns, and related risks to health, work performance, and safety.
Assessments may be required for:
- Workplace safety checks in safety-sensitive industries
- Employee return-to-work or fitness for duty evaluations
- Legal and court-related matters
- Early intervention for individuals seeking support
- Rehabilitation or treatment planning
Our Assessment Process
Our assessments are confidential, structured, and evidence-based. The process typically includes:
- Referral & Background Information – Reviewing case details and assessment purpose.
- Clinical Interview – Exploring substance use history, triggers, and behaviours.
- Psychological & Risk Evaluation – Identifying impacts on mental health, safety, and functioning.
- Comprehensive Report – Providing clear findings and tailored recommendations.
- Support Pathways – Guiding treatment, rehabilitation, or workplace adjustments if required.
