Our Evaluation Process for Healthcare Professionals
Before being admitted to our program, healthcare professionals receive a specialized evaluation in a comfortable, supervised setting. Effective at diagnosing substance use and psychiatric disorders, this 3 to 7 day evaluation includes several components designed to determine if treatment is necessary.
Our Evaluation Process Includes:
- Complete medical exam
- Psychosocial & occupational assessments
- Drug screens
- Interviews with family, employer, or professional board (if referring entity)
- Psychological testing
- Medically-supervised detox (when required)
When the evaluation is complete, each patient reviews the findings with a specialized team of healthcare professionals. If treatment is recommended, this team collaborates with the patient to develop a custom plan that meets their needs and professional requirements.

Returning To Work
When a patient is near completion of their residential stay, their treatment team evaluates their commitment to their recovery and ability to perform the work required of them. After approving the patients’ efforts, Cornerstone will advocate for their return to work and ensure the proper steps are taken to have their license reinstated.
