Kent Addiction Rehab Centre

Introduction

This Clinic situated in Kent is a private hospital specialising in the management and treatment of psychiatric illness and addictions including heroin.

We have acquired an excellent reputation for our range of services and the quality of our care since we opened in 1983. The hospital is situated in quiet grounds in Kent. We have residential facilities for 47 patients and also offer a wide range of out-patient and day care services.

We are committed to the provision of patient-centred care. Treatment plans are tailored to the specific needs of the patient by our highly qualified multidisciplinary clinical teams. We endeavour to make the hospital a place of serenity and sanctuary, where our patients can take time out to rest and heal in a fully supported therapeutic environment which promotes hope, healing and sanctuary.

What makes us special?

Our heroin addiction programmes are Consultant-led and provide intensive treatment, education and support designed to help individuals face the reality of their dependency and promote the restoration of physical and emotional health. The programmes aim to minimise the psychological and physical distress of withdrawal by establishing abstinence in a safe and supportive environment.

Programme Overview

The programmes are based on the 12-step abstinence model and provide treatment for a wide range of substance and behavioural dependencies. Programmes are also available to treat the more complex and increasingly common conditions such as poly-addictions or dual diagnosis.

Treatment for most programmes is normally provided on an inpatient basis, typically lasting between four and six weeks. However, the programme can vary in duration and content, depending on the package of care required and more flexible programme structures involving day care or out-patient treatment may be available to suit individuals' personal circumstances and lifestyle commitments.

The treatment programme consists of a range of activities such as:

• Individual and group therapy /counselling
• Educational lectures, workshops and seminars
• Family participation programme

Facilities and accommodation

We understand that the patient's environment is just as important as the treatment they receive, which is why each patient has the comfort and privacy of their own room with a television, telephone and en-suite facilities. We always endeavour to make your stay as comfortable as possible.

Wheelchair access and parking are provided for patients with disabilities. We have a residential room on-site designed to accommodate patients with disabilities or special needs.

Patients are encouraged to take meals in our restaurant, which offers an excellent choice of dishes. Special dietary requirements can be catered for upon request.
