SASSI also know as Alcohol Evaluation

Substance Abuse Evaluation (Alcohol Evaluation)

The SASSI-4 is a clinically developed screening tool used to help identify whether a person may have a substance use disorder or a high probability of substance dependence.

Unlike many questionnaires that simply ask direct questions like “Do you drink too much?” or “Do you use drugs often?”, the SASSI-4 is designed to detect substance dependency even when someone may minimize, deny, or not fully recognize the extent of a problem.

It combines:

Direct questions about alcohol and drug use
Indirect or “subtle” questions that measure attitudes, behaviors, defensiveness, and patterns commonly associated with substance misuse

The assessment is commonly used by:

  • Courts
  • Probation departments
  • DWI/DUI programs
  • Counselors and treatment providers
  • Employers in some settings

The SASSI-4 itself is not a diagnosis. It is a screening instrument that helps a licensed professional determine:

  • Whether further evaluation is recommended.
  • Whether education or treatment may be appropriate.
  • The likelihood of a substance use disorder

The instructor, Ken, is awesome. Very well done. The curriculum is trash, the price is outrageous, and there should be a weekend scheduling option that isn't so workweek aggressive. Maybe earn the money by making it more available to people who work 40 hours/week jobs and definitely edit the email communications to your clientele to appear less threatening. (Your excessive use of exclamation points is a grammatical nightmare and hard on the eyes).

And threats are trashy. Smh.

Good job, Ken. Smh, Alamo Center. 🤝

Lindsay was a great teacher. She kept us all from falling asleep by making the course interactive which allowed for us to retain the information. I learned quite a lot about the effects of alcohol and how mixing drinking with drugs really amplifies the effects on my body.
