Which Rehab Centre Should I Go To?

All rehab centers are registered with the Care Quality Commission (CQC) so you know you will be in safe hands. Finding Drug Addiction Rehab options in the UK means trusting in this rigorous process before a center can be granted registration. Regular inspections are conducted to ensure safety and the highest standards of care.

Addiction is addiction: While every person has a different experience of what led them to becoming dependent on a particular substance or behavior (porn/gambling, etc) the core elements of treatment are always the same. Detox (if clinically needed) and group therapy are essential.

Most centers include a weekly session of individual therapy. Some clients continue with the same therapist when they go home for an additional fee. However, all the research the world over points to the fact that group therapy gives you the best outcomes. Drug addiction rehab in the UK often highlights group therapy as crucial.

For those who need a detox (and not everyone does) the rehab center will provide this. However, not all centers cater for all types of clients. Some do not offer opioid detox, for example. Others, because accommodation is off-site, are unable to offer treatment for severe Ketamine dependency. This is due to the frequency of medical monitoring required.

There are not as many rehab centers in the UK as the internet will suggest. If you’re looking for Drug Addiction Rehab UK, our clinicians can advise you on where you can get the help you need while keeping costs to a minimum.

What Can Find Me a Rehab Do For Me?

Our experienced addictions clinicians work in private rehab centers, GP shared care services, local authority and NHS commissioned provisions as well as private hospitals and prisons. As such, they will know precisely what you will need to get you into recovery. They are also able to steer you away from what you don’t require.

Green tea, chakra reading and yoga with goats is all very nice but really won’t make much of a difference to your recovery. There are certainly centers that offer this but you don’t need it. These bolt-on treatments won’t do you any harm but they will, significantly, increase the cost of rehab.

Why Should I Use Find Me a Rehab?

Our clinicians are there to treat patients. There job is to assess, diagnose, and draw up treatment plans for those who need treatment for addiction. They are empathetic to the stress and strain caused by addiction and the emotions that go with it. Sadly, there are those in and around the addictions sector who are less altruistic: Referral agents.

Referral agents are there to sell: Nothing else. They charge commissions of up to 50% of the cost of your treatment and one, in particular, will demand payment from the rehab center within an hour of your arrival. While the person you speak to may have lived experience of addiction, they are not a clinician. Also, they have probably never even visited a rehab center and are working to targets from their kitchen table.

Their website may make it look as if they have rehab centers, but they don’t. When searching for Drug Addiction Rehab in the UK, beware. By paying large sums for post box addresses at service offices, these referral companies manipulate google into thinking they have centers all over the country. When you speak to them, as soon as they have your name and phone number they will email a center they think will take you. This will happen while you are still on the line. They will then send your details to every other center in the UK. This is so they can stake a claim on commission should you go somewhere else.

Sadly, some people relapse and if you go back into a rehab, within six months, the referral agent gets further commission. This is why referral agencies will call you: Constantly. They are not interested in your welfare, merely your wallet.

When they do this they will change a digit in your phone number so the other centers can not call you. Some rehab centers are now refusing to accept these non-direct referrals.

What Are The Dangers Of Using Referral Agents?

When you are in addiction you are vulnerable. Referral agents will sense it and oversell. That is what they are trained to do. The more you spend on rehab, the more commission they receive. Referral agents will make all sorts of promises that rehab centers can not keep. Swimming pools, saunas, and fully equipped and staffed gymnasiums. Indeed, our clinicians have heard it all!

As the referral sector is unregulated (and many are based overseas) there are some rogue actors:

Success Is A Choice Not An Outcome: Greek Fraudster Destroyed Via Email This referral agent lives overseas and has numerous websites advertising centers that do not exist. He uses pictures from rehab centers, without permission, on his website to make it look as if he owns them. When you call, his assistant in the UK will sell your details to a reputable center for commission.

Another bad actor is this person: Fines of £60,780 issued following the CQC prosecution of an unlawful substance misuse service based in Liverpool – Care Quality Commission. The owner also has referral agencies (though she lives in Thailand) and for two years, continued to advertise her two defunct centers. When people called, they were told the centers were full, under refurbishment, or some other excuse simply to get your details to sell on. This was against a backdrop of trading illegally through companies in compulsory liquidation.

Alcohol & Drug Rehabilitation in Surrey | Lifeline Is a website for a wholly fictitious rehab center (the website is connected to the company above). The pictures relate to a country house from a Rightmove advertisement and a local gym. Once again, callers are given a raft of excuses as to why they can not go to the center. In the end, details are sold on to a reputable one.

Can Anyone Get Free and Independent Advice?

Yes. Our experienced addictions clinicians give free advice (and referrals) to anyone. They can never discuss you with anyone else unless you give expressed permission. Similarly, unless you request/authorise it they will not make any contact with your GP. We are registered with the Information Commissioners Office (ICO) and take data protection extremely seriously.
