Salford Drug & Alcohol Rehab Clinics

Getting Help in Salford

If you or someone you love is addicted to alcohol or drugs, seeking help will be the best decision you ever make.

The sad reality of addiction is the effects get worse over time. The consequences can be fatal – but not before ruining people’s lives and destroying relationships.

Thankfully, our rehab clinics in Salford are here to help. We truly believe that with help, support and understanding, anyone can beat addiction. We also believe it is never too late to seek help and turn your life around.

Whether you are addicted to cannabis, cocaine, mephedrone, heroin, opiates or alcohol, or even if you need a prescription drug detox, we have the expertise and understanding to help you beat your addiction and stay drug free.

A call to the Serenity Centre helpline on 0800 118 2892 is all it takes to get started. We’ll take the time to discuss the rehab process with you.

Why Choose Rehab in Salford?

Salford is bigger than you think – it covers 37 square miles and is home to the beautiful Peel Park and Buile Hill Park. It also has the Quays, one of the Northwest’s brightest cultural and sporting hubs with the Lowry Arts centre.

Our rehab centres in Salford offer luxurious accommodation and supervised access to all Salford’s brightest attractions. Your recovery programme will probably include daily walks and cycling sessions in Salford to get you fit, and weekly excursions to places like the Lowry to bring freedom to your rehab experience.

Salford is an extremely well-connected city to the Northwest of England, making it ideal if you don’t want to travel far for your recovery.

Outpatient and Inpatient Programmes

You can undergo a recovery programme as an inpatient or outpatient.

Inpatient rehab

As an inpatient, your alcohol or drug detox will take place in clinical care. This all but eliminates the risk of relapse during the detox stage. It ensures you have a safe and secure environment to relax in, and people around you who know what you are going through. It also gives us the best opportunity to deliver therapy.

Outpatient rehab

As an outpatient, you will undergo a home detox, and so your detox will not take place in a secure environment. However, outpatient rehab is a cheaper and more accessible type of rehab. You’ll need to check in with your clinic regularly and your therapy will be as an outpatient, so you’ll need transport.

Which is best?

Inpatient rehab is best in 90% of cases, especially for alcohol or street drug addiction.

Patients who are deemed to be at a low risk of relapse and a low risk of self harm may benefit from outpatient rehab. To find out which type of rehab is best for you, you can get advice by speaking with one of our helpful advisors – call us on 0800 118 2892.

The most controversial stages of drug and alcohol rehab are the detox and therapy stages, which we’ll take a closer look at now.

Detox

A detox involves abstaining from the substances you are addicted to. This process will cleanse your body so it can reset itself and begin to heal.

Your detox will last anywhere from a few weeks to a few months. Most patients stay in clinical care for two to three weeks, before graduating to outpatient care, where we will continue to manage your withdrawal symptoms.

Detoxing from alcohol or drugs will test your strength and character. The process is never easy, but it is manageable. We will be with you every step of the way to keep your withdrawal symptoms under control.

Therapy

Therapy will be introduced during your detox to resolve the habits and triggers that lead you to substance abuse.

You might benefit from several therapies, like guided self-help, Cognitive Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behaviour Therapy (DBT), Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy, counselling, or a combination of all these therapies.

This is also an opportunity for our rehab clinics to treat and resolve any associated mental health problems like anxiety, depression, PTSD and OCD.

Continued abstinence

After you graduate from clinical care, you will stay on withdrawal medication for a short while until your symptoms are under complete control.

From here, your outlook will be good, but the hard work isn’t over yet. To help you stay clean, we will stay in touch with you to provide support and arrange a peer mentor to guide you through the next chapters in your life.

As part of your rehab in Salford, we will also put in place a support network for you to access at any point in the future when you need help.
