RMV Psychiatric Evaluations for Holyoke Drivers
If RMV Medical Affairs has asked you to complete a Psychiatric Evaluation (Form MAB118), Greater Boston Psychiatric Services can complete it for adults in Holyoke. Villages and neighborhoods we serve include Ireland Parish, Elmwood and Smiths Ferry.
Holyoke clients can meet with us by secure video from home, which means no drive to Medway. If you would rather meet face to face, our office is at 165 Main Street, Suite 111A, Medway, MA 02053.
Getting Your Evaluation Done from Holyoke
Holyoke is known for its historic canal system on the Connecticut River, Holyoke Community College, and Mount Tom State Reservation, with Interstate 91 passing through. Because a video appointment needs only a device and a connection, residents of Holyoke can skip the drive and the parking and meet from home or work. If you received a Form MAB118 request from RMV Medical Affairs, the deadline on the notice is what we work against.
Local Courts and RMV Offices for Holyoke Drivers
Form MAB118 is handled by RMV Medical Affairs, which reviews completed forms centrally rather than through a local office. The nearest RMV Service Centers listed by the RMV include Springfield and Easthampton.
A Medical Affairs request is separate from any court case. You can be asked for this evaluation even if you have never been charged with anything.
What Is the RMV Psychiatric Evaluation (Form MAB118)?
RMV Medical Affairs requests a Psychiatric Evaluation (Form MAB118) when it has received a report, from a physician, family member or law enforcement official, suggesting that a driver may have a psychiatric or medical condition affecting their ability to drive safely. It is a different requirement from the substance abuse evaluation with risk of recidivism: it is not tied to an OUI or DUI case.
Massachusetts requires the form to be completed by a physician licensed in the state or a psychiatric nurse practitioner, which are the credential types on our clinical team.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is this different from the RMV substance abuse evaluation?

Massachusetts requires the form to be completed by a physician licensed in Massachusetts or a psychiatric nurse practitioner, both credential types on our clinical team.
