The disease of drug abuse kills thousands of individuals every year, devastates families, destroys businesses, and costs our economy billions of dollars annually. The most effective method of combating this deadly and costly epidemic is to stop it before it stops. Steven Paymer, MSW, CPCT, has worked in the field of substance abuse prevention and treatment since 1998. In 2005, he realized there was a need for drug and alcohol testing conducted by individuals with a background in substance abuse for testing to be most effective. As a result, Steven began to offer families of individuals under his care the option of hair follicle testing. When compared to the more traditional forms of testing, hair samples can detect a longer period of drug use. With hair samples, the only time limitation for detecting drug usage is imposed by the length of the donor’s hair. Each 1/3 inch of head hair provides a 30-day history of drug use. The standard for the industry is to test 1.5 inches, which provides a 90-day history of the donor’s drug use. In addition to conducting hair follicle testing, Paymer Associates also provide DOT and Non-DOT testing, SCRAMx – the continuous alcohol monitoring bracelet, breathalyzer testing, saliva strip testing for alcohol, and the 5-Panel drug patch. We also support families and businesses with case management and referrals, and assist businesses in creating a drug free workplace policy and program. Other forms of testing can be conducted as needed along with background checks. Our goal is to provide you, your loved one, or your employees, with a safe and comfortable environment.
Whether you need to maintain compliance with DOT regulations, are involved in litigation, or want to test your teenage at home, Paymer Associates has the ability to accommodate all of your needs. We welcome everyone from individuals to large corporations. Driven by integrity and customer service, we offer the attention and services that you will be hard pressed to find anywhere, at a cost that is reasonable.
