Intake Assessment

An intake assessment is a process where a professional gathers information about a person’s needs, background, and current situation, typically at the start of a service or treatment. It involves asking questions about their personal history, reasons for seeking help, goals, and any relevant health or social factors. The goal is to understand their unique circumstances to develop an appropriate plan of support or intervention. This process helps ensure that services are tailored to meet their individual needs effectively and set a foundation for ongoing work or treatment.
