Insight's Check Tools are ideal for use by GPs, in hospital settings, by generalist health and community service workers or by specialist mental health and AOD treatment workers who are conducting initial appointments, drug diversion sessions and/or opportunistic engagement with clients and patients.  You are free to use the tool in any way that suits you. Parts can be skipped or the sequence re-ordered, or you can simply read through the tool word-for-word. The completed exercise can then be given to the client to take away as a reminder of your conversation.
