Recovery Scotland

Recovery Scotland provides support to those who are struggling with addiction, a safe space to get confidential advice and support, without feeling judged.

Recovery Scotland isn’t a rehab centre, a hospital or a treatment clinic, but they can connect you with the right people and services to get the help you need.

Whether you’re looking for yourself, a loved one, or are a professional looking to refer someone, you’ll be guided through the process and offered help with finding the right next steps.

 

Rehab and Addiction Treatment Guidance

Every situation is different, and the best way to beat addiction will depend on a whole load of factors – like the substance being used, how long they’ve been using it, and what their personal circumstances are.

Recovery Scotland can give you information about all sorts of treatment options, including:

  • Rehab for drugs and alcohol
  • Medically supervised detox
  • Private and community-based treatment services
  • Outpatient addiction programmes
  • Individual and group therapy
  • Help with mental health and dual diagnosis
  • Programmes to prevent relapse
  • Ongoing care and support after treatment
  • Help and support for families and friends

 

Finding Support Across Scotland

Recovery Scotland helps people find rehab and addiction services all over Scotland. They’ll give you information and support, whether you’re in Glasgow, Edinburgh, Aberdeen, Dundee, Inverness or anywhere else in the country.

Some might want to get treatment close to home, where friends and family can offer support, whereas others might find it helpful to get away from their normal environment. Recovery Scotland helps you think about the practicalities of treatment, such as:

  • Where the treatment centre is located
  • Whether it’s residential or outpatient care
  • How long the programme will take
  • What level of medical support is available
  • What kind of therapy you can expect
  • How much family involvement there will be
  • What aftercare arrangements are in place
  • Whether the centre is accessible for people with mobility issues
  • How long it takes to get into treatment
  • What the cost will be and what options are available for paying

 

Understanding Rehab Facilities

Rehab facilities can be very different from each other, so it’s worth taking the time to understand what each one has to offer before making a decision.

Some places have a clinical or hospital-style environment, while others are more informal and homely. The level of medical care, therapy and support will vary from one place to another, as will the facilities themselves. For example:

  • Whether you’ll have your own room or share with others
  • What the communal areas are like
  • Where you’ll have your therapy sessions
  • Whether there are any outdoor spaces or recreational activities
  • What kind of fitness and wellbeing activities are on offer
  • Whether there are designated smoking areas
  • Whether the centre is accessible for people with mobility issues
  • What transport options are available

Recovery Scotland can help you figure out what kind of facilities are most important to you. We always say it’s a good idea to talk directly to the treatment providers, ask them plenty of questions and make sure you understand what you can expect before you go.

 

How Recovery Scotland Can Help

Get in Touch

Give us a call and have a confidential conversation about your situation. We’ll listen without judgement, and help you understand the support that’s available.

Explore Your Options

We can explain the different treatment options and help you compare them – and introduce you to providers who can give you the help you need.

Get Referral Support

Where necessary, we can help you get in touch with a suitable treatment provider or support service.

The provider you’ve chosen will have to do their own assessment to check whether they can actually deliver what you need – and then they’ll be in touch with you directly to talk about what happens next – admission or treatment or whatever.

 

Take the First Step Towards Recovery

Admitting you need help with addiction is hard enough – you don’t have to go through it on your own, though.

Recovery Scotland can give you confidential advice and point you in the right direction – whether you’re struggling with addiction yourself, or trying to help a loved one, or working with someone who does. This service is available all over Scotland.

You can call 01475 303998 to get in touch with Recovery Scotland for a chat.
