Process

Alcohol screenings are a two-step process.  Clients sanctioned to complete an Alcohol Screening are scheduled for the Noble IDA which are completed by our Misdemeanor Court Compliance Officers.  The results of the IDA Screening are forwarded to our New Mexico licensed provider to complete the ASI-Lite, PHQ-9, and Mental Health Screening Form III.  Our licensed provider will provide a treatment recommendation and referral.  

Self-referrals are welcome.

Noble Impaired Driving Assessment (IDA) Screening

The Noble IDA Screening is required for all DWI Defendants entering Post-Adjudication services.  

In addition to the Noble IDA  Assessment, our program now implements the following supplemental assessments to better provide services for the individual:

Addiction Severity Index - Lite Version (ASI-Lite)
The Addiction Severity Index, Lite version (ASI-Lite) is a shortened version of the Addiction Severity Index (ASI). The ASI is an instrument used in face-to-face interviews conducted by clinicians, researchers, or trained technicians. The ASI covers areas that include medical, employment/support, drug and alcohol use, legal, family/social, and psychiatric. The ASI obtains information about problem behaviors, as well as problems within the previous 30 days. The ASI-Lite has 22 fewer questions than the ASI and omits items that are related to severity ratings and a family history grid. 

Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9)
The Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) is a multipurpose instrument that assists clinicians in screening, diagnosing, monitoring and measuring the severity of depression as well as selecting and monitoring treatment.

Mental Health Screening Form-III
The Mental Health Screening Form-III (MHSF-III) was initially designed for clients seeking admission to substance abuse treatment programs. The MHSF-III contains questions that reflect the respondent’s entire life history and are answered with either “yes” or “no.”
