Help Us Help You
Residential rehab gives you a chance to embark on recovery in a safe, structured, supported, and supervised environment. It's a golden opportunity to step away from the chaos of addiction, whatever form it may take. From the moment you walk through the door, there are staff on hand to guide you, support you, and be there for you to confront the challenges posed by addiction and dependency. It might have taken years to gather the courage to admit there is a problem, and it's essential that the centre you choose is the right one for you. For those clients with healthcare insurance, the choice can be limited as only a few rehab centres work with insurance companies.
Staff Support and Expertise
Many of the staff at centres, especially therapists, are in recovery themselves and would have been through a rehab centre. This lived experience gives these staff a real insight into the difficulties posed by addiction: They really do understand. While everyone's experience of addiction is different, staff with a lived experience add a dimension of understanding that can really enhance the therapeutic experience.
Specialisation and Treatment Approaches
Not all centres cater to every need. Some specialise in alcohol and cocaine, whereas others are able to provide services for the whole range of addictions, including opioids. Some centres work on a 12-step model, akin to Alcoholics Anonymous/Narcotics Anonymous, whereas others work along a SMART recovery model ethos. Others use an eclectic mix.
Variety in Centre Policies
Some centres will allow clients to remain on certain medications while in rehab, while others will not. Mobile phones and laptops are prohibited at some centres, allowed with conditions at others, and some allow clients to keep them on their person. In other words, there are huge variances in what goes on in centres, and that doesn't just mean in cost. Some centres are in remote locations, others not so.
Medical Supervision and Services
There are those who have consultant psychiatrists on the staff, visiting GP specialists, or those who use remote prescribing services. Others have very limited medical supervision. Paul has worked in many of these centres and can advise on what a client needs and what is available. All centres have a treatment agreement meaning that clients, when they are physically able to do so, have to attend all sessions on the timetable. This applies even to those limited number of clients who go for a week.
Choosing the Right Centre
Making the right choice is essential to transition from dependency to recovery. All centres are registered with the Care Quality Commission (CQC) ensuring that fundamental aspects are ensured. Some are very luxurious and provide high-end surroundings with gourmet catering and bolt-on therapies which can add to the overall experience. Most centres, for clients entering treatment for more than seven days, provide a weekly private session with a therapist. Other centres provide a more entry-level cost service. For those for whom finance is an issue, some will offer a shared room which can significantly lower the cost.

Logistics and Transportation
When a client decides where they would like to go for treatment, the admissions team at the centre will guide them through the admissions process. Each centre has its own procedures yet all will require a certain amount of medical information (which may include information from the client's GP). Where information is sought from a GP, a client can ask the surgery for a medical summary. Surgery staff are not obliged to ask why this is needed and there is no compulsion to tell them. There may be a short delay while the team at the centre reviews the information to see if admission is in the client's best interests. If all is well, an admission date is agreed and a deposit is taken to secure the bed. It is not uncommon for clients to be able to move admission dates forward in the event of cancellations.

Private rehabilitation and detox can be a life-changing experience. For some, it can be cost-prohibitive and require family help to raise the necessary funds. For all who go it is a commitment of time: From seven days to several months. Whatever the circumstances, making the right choice can make a real difference.
