Santé's assessments are tailored to the specific needs of the professional, therefore, the different types of testing can vary from one individual to another.  Collateral data can be collected from family, friends, colleagues, employers and from any written complaint that may have led to the assessment.

Santé Center for Healing’s Licensed Professional Assessment Program offers a fair, precise and objective investigation of the professional in crisis. Data collected during the assessment is then used to gauge the professional’s ability to return to work, provide monitoring recommendations and/or the necessity for him/her to seek further treatment.  This information is provided in a formal written report to the referral source within a timeframe agreed upon with respective organization.
