Wales Drug & Alcohol Rehab Clinics

Finding the Right Rehab in Wales

If you or a loved one are struggling with alcohol addiction or drug addiction, it’s important that you receive the specialist help and support you need from a reputable clinic. This will ensure your journey to recovery is fruitful.

Getting help for addiction is firstly a matter of choosing the right rehab clinic to provide your care, and thankfully, there are several high-quality rehab clinics in Wales.

Our rehab centres offer alcohol and drug treatment, so no matter the substance you are addicted to, or even if you have a dual diagnosis, we can help you get drug free and stay that way with a personalised rehab programme.

Recovery from addiction is a marathon not a sprint, and the initial care you receive from a clinic will be for a detox from the substance(s) you are addicted to. From here, you will receive therapy to help you deal with your addiction psychologically.

A call to our helpline on 0800 118 2892 is all it takes to explore the best rehab centres in Wales. Our friendly and helpful advisors are here to guide you through the rehab process and help you get into one of our world-class clinics.

This mindset is a key differentiator between our clinics and others.

Inpatient & outpatient rehab in Wales

Help for drug or alcohol addiction is offered in one of two ways. You can be either an inpatient, or an outpatient. The highest standard of treatment and help and support is given to inpatients; outpatient treatment is a lower-cost option.

If you are an inpatient you will stay in clinic accommodation during your detox and begin your therapy there. Inpatients typically stay in rehab clinic accommodation for two weeks to one month, depending on their circumstances.

If you are an outpatient of a rehab clinic, this means you perform a home detox. Instead of receiving round-the-clock help from nurses and carers, you will be visited by a nurse infrequently and check in with your clinic every day or every two days, so your progress can be monitored.

In both cases, you will receive a medically-managed detox with withdrawal medication and therapy; it is just inpatients receive a higher standard of care.

If you an inpatient at a Wales rehab clinic, you can expect the following:

• 24/7 care
• Withdrawal medication
• Biochemical restoration
• Therapy and counselling
• Support meetings
• Psychological therapies
• Wellbeing therapies
• Social and group activities

If you are an outpatient at a rehab clinic in Wales, you can expect the following:

• A detox at home
• Visits from a nurse
• Withdrawal medication
• Therapy and counselling

Outpatient care is lower-cost than inpatient care, but this is a balancing act, since inpatient rehab has by far the greatest success rate. Call us for free on 0800 118 2892 to discuss these different types of rehab with our experts.

What happens in rehab?

What happens in rehab is no secret. You will have a personalised rehab programme, but the itinerary will follow a basic blueprint. It looks like this:

1. Treatment initiation
2. Early abstinence (detox)
3. Maintaining abstinence through behavioural training

If you are in inpatient, you could be admitted into rehab on the same day you enquire if you need immediate intervention. Otherwise, your admission into rehab will be planned, so you can get your personal life in order before you go away.

The process begins with a clinical assessment of your condition. This will evaluate your physical and mental health. It will take place either at the clinic or a private hospital and is necessary to create your treatment programme.

With either drug or alcohol rehabilitation, the first step following your assessment is treatment initiation, so you know what to expect, and then a detox. The detox stage of rehab is the hardest stage because you must abstain from what you are addicted to. You will be prescribed withdrawal medication and be helped by nurses and care workers throughout your detox.

Depending on your psychological condition, you may receive additional treatment and medication for things like anxiety, depression, PTSD and OCD. This is important so the root triggers for your addiction can be dealt with.

Your detox will last anywhere from two weeks to one month. During your detox, you will enter therapy and counselling to help treat the social and behavioural sides of addiction – things that detoxing alone do not touch.

Ongoing therapy is also necessary to help you stay clean and sober. Rehab is a marathon, not a sprint, and it is likely you will stay on withdrawal medication for a short time after leaving the clinic and be weaned off these over a few months. This will help you adjust to life without alcohol or drugs.

With the right help and support, anyone can beat addiction and live a normal life. Our rehab clinics in Wales are here to help you do it. Call us on 0800 118 2892 to speak with one of our friendly advisors. All advice is free and confidential.
