SAP (Substance Abuse Professional) Services & DOT Services
SAP-certified clinician, providing Substance Abuse Professional (SAP) services specifically for individuals regulated by the Department of Transportation (DOT). A SAP is a qualified professional trained to assess, evaluate, and provide guidance for individuals who have violated DOT drug and alcohol testing regulations.
SAP's main function is to protect the public interest in safety by professionally evaluating the employee and recommending appropriate education and/or treatment, follow-up tests, and continuing education.
-
Conducting comprehensive assessments, evaluations, and recommendations to ensure clients meet DOT standards for workplace compliance or return-to-duty requirements.
-
Collaborating with employers, HR departments, or treatment programs when appropriate, while maintaining strict confidentiality and professional ethics.
DOT-regulated positions require employees to comply with federal drug and alcohol testing programs. My role as a SAP is to help clients understand these requirements, complete the necessary evaluations, and develop a plan for safe return to work, while supporting their overall wellness and personal growth.
