What does the TSR assessment instrument measure?

The TSR assessment instrument is designed specifically to measure the nature and intensity of treatment services provided to individuals undergoing therapeutic interventions. This tool evaluates how comprehensive the treatment services are, including their appropriateness and the degree to which they meet the individual needs of clients. By focusing on the nature and intensity of these services, the TSR assessment helps professionals determine whether clients are receiving adequate support for their recovery and can identify areas for improvement in treatment plans.

This focus on the specific aspects of treatment services distinguishes it from other assessments that may measure therapeutic intensity and problem severity, resistance to solutions, or remedial outcomes associated with specific topics. While those concepts are relevant in the broader context of assessing and providing care, the primary aim of the TSR instrument is a comprehensive assessment of the treatment services themselves. This unique focus makes it an essential part of treatment evaluation in AODA practices.
