What is a Private Rehab Center?
A private rehab clinic refers to a residential facility that offers rehabilitation treatment from a substance(s). Private rehab clinics can help with addictions to a variety of substances including alcohol, heroin, cocaine, and cannabis amongst others.
During treatment at a private rehab centre the person may need to be assisted through a medical detox (if there is a physical dependence). Withdrawal from certain substances can be life threatening and from others can be extremely uncomfortable. Therefore, it is vital that the detox takes place in a private rehab clinic where professionals are there to support the person throughout the process. Private rehabilitation clinics will also focus on the psychological side of the dependence. This will usually combine several types of therapy such as group and one-to-one therapy, educational seminars, and personal reflection through journal keeping. It is important that the person learns to understand their addiction and the reasons behind it in order to avoid future relapse.
A private rehab centre differs from other treatments in that it is more intensive. The person is given some time away to really focus on getting themselves better. Another advantage is that the person is in a therapeutic environment surrounded by professionals that will make the process as easy as possible. All providers, staff and private rehab centres UK wide that Triage Healthcare works with are registered with the appropriate professional bodies.
Home based alcohol rehab may be a consideration in some circumstances. Triage Healthcare always recommends that a residential private rehab centre is considered before home based rehab. This is because the environment residential private rehab centres offer is more conducive to a successful outcome. It is also a more cost-effective route to explore. However, if a residential private rehab centre is not a feasible consideration, then Triage Healthcare may be able to arrange a home alcohol detox. Patients will have a full assessment with a doctor and with a specialist nurse before a home detox is approved.
When should someone seek a Private Rehab Center?
Addiction can completely take over a person's life. This does not have to be the case. Anyone can recover with the right treatment programme and private rehab clinic.
A sign of addiction is a change in finance. When substance dependence is present, financial problems will quickly become apparent. Unreliability, keeping strange hours, and being secretive are all indicators of an addiction problem. You may also notice an increase in new friends, who don’t seem “quite right”.
Two questions to ask are: 1. Can the person quit entirely when they honestly want to? 2. Can the person control the amount of the substance consumed?
If the answer to either of these questions is no, please call us immediately to discuss treatment, whether it is private rehab drug or alcohol that is needed.
Types of Rehab Center
The advantage of private rehab centres is that they can be accessed immediately. We can normally set up admission to a private rehab centre UK wide within 24 hours of taking your call. This means that the person is immediately given some time away from the environment where the dependence exists. This time away allows the opportunity to fully understand the nature of the addiction and to develop coping strategies ready for the return home.
It is possible to access private rehab centres overseas. This option can be particularly appealing to those individuals who have already accessed a private rehab centre in the UK with limited success. By travelling overseas to access treatment, the person is completely removed from their problematic surroundings. Overseas treatment can also represent better value for money in some cases.
It is also possible to access free NHS services. Whilst it would clearly be preferable to receive treatment without having to pay for it, it is important to remember that there is an imbalance between availability of addiction treatment in the NHS and the demand in the community. Therefore, there can often be long waiting lists involved when trying to access the NHS options.
How long could treatment at a Rehab Center take?
The duration of treatment at a private rehab centre will vary depending on the particular situation. A private rehab drug or alcohol related usually offers programmes between 4 and 12 weeks long. Regardless of the length of treatment, an attitude of ‘seeing it through’ is central to effectiveness. Quality private rehab centres are able to identify the following:
