People that become addicted to substances feel ashamed of themselves and end up being caught in a destructive cycle that can destroy their and other people’s lives. The culture of shame and not talking is something that we at Rehab Clinics Group are completely against. Only through being more open, more willing to ask for help and give it can more people get the help they need.
If you are here, admitting you have a problem, then you’ve taken a massive step towards finding the solution.

Our Admissions Process
The prospect of selecting a rehab and figuring out all the logistics that admission to treatment entails can seem like too much, too soon. That is why Rehab Clinics Group tries to make the process as simple as possible. Everyone that comes to us for help is asking for help during a particularly fraught and emotional time of their life – that is why we break admission down into coherent steps.
Before Entering Treatment
Contacting us will put you in touch with one of our dedicated admissions teams. We are available 24/7 and can lead you through any questions, worries or information you wish to know about our drug and alcohol treatment. You can reach us by phone call, text, email or live chat.
The advice and information on treatment options you will receive at this stage is completely free and confidential. At Rehab Clinics Group, we do our utmost to make everyone as informed and comfortable as possible.
After your initial inquiry, there will be a pre-admission screening. This is a quick process that can be completed in around 20 minutes if done over the phone. The screening consists of some questions about your health, type of addiction and current circumstances to figure out the best course of treatment for you. If everything is agreed upon and you’re happy to proceed then an admission date at a centre of your choosing can be sorted out.
Places at our facilities get taken up quickly so it is important to secure a place by putting down a deposit. Payments can be made in cash, by electronic bank transfer, credit or debit card.
Entering one of our Rehab Centres
Admission day can come around quickly and the reality of entering drug and alcohol rehab can be an overwhelming one for some people. That’s totally fine, one of our recovery team will be there to welcome you and show you around the centre. Your Recovery Worker will show you your room, help you get settled and prepare you for the treatment assessment.
Once you’ve settled in a bit and gotten comfortable the time will come to meet with the specialist doctor. This meeting is simple and essential – the doctor will use the information they get from you to understand your addiction more and formulate a prescribing plan that will meet your detoxification needs.
After this, you will spend some time with your Recovery Worker over the next two days to get to know each other better. Together you will begin to devise a recovery plan that will act as a guide map through your recovery journey. Plans like these are important as you can lay down markers you wish to hit and accomplishments to celebrate during your time with us.
Drug or Alcohol Detox in Rehab
Drug and alcohol abuse will lead to your body being physically dependant on the substances. Because of this, we encourage that the first step in your treatment is to undergo medical detoxification.
This process is overseen by a doctor, who administers medication to help ease the worst of withdrawal symptoms. How long detox lasts is dependent on many factors including the type of addiction, the severity of it, your health and your age.
Though this is a stressful time that no recovering addict looks forward to, it is necessary to build the foundations from which to begin a sober life. Clearing the harmful toxins from your body will allow it to heal itself and you can start thinking unimpaired once again.
From this stage, you can begin to delve into the root causes of your addiction.
Therapy Options at a Rehab Clinics Group Centre
The list of therapies we offer at the centres under the Rehab Clinics Group umbrella is expansive and has shown to be effective addiction treatment. During your time with us, the therapy you partake in will have been specifically chosen to help you achieve long-term recovery.
The therapies we offer include, but are not limited to, the following:
Dual-diagnosis treatment is available to those suffering from mental health issues. Treating mental health conditions alongside your addiction is of the utmost importance, and effective treatment can’t be achieved if the entirety of a person is not dealt with.
Many factors go into pushing a person to addiction and we believe in dealing with the whole of the problem, rather than just one part of it.
Relapse Prevention After Rehab
Your time at one of our centres is just the beginning of the journey. The road to lifetime sobriety is one that will consist of the rest of your life. Out in the real world the everyday temptations of addiction – your triggers, the return to old environments – are still very much present and may not ever go away.
What happens after treatment, and how you proceed, is just as important as the work you did at our facility. Due to the critical nature of the months just after rehab (when most relapses occur) we offer a free 12-month aftercare package – personalised to your unique situation and focussed on keeping you sober.
Outside of attending support meetings and having contact with aftercare teams, Rehab Clinics Group can also offer support and guidance if relapse does occur. No matter what happens, we will be there to help.
We will also encourage you to attend AA or NA meetings in Angus over a longer period of time. These regular meetings can help in your long-term recovery over a period of years, and people do find them very helpful with relapse prevention.

What are the most effective treatments?
Undergoing addiction treatment that deals with both the physical and psychological sides facets are a huge step towards long-term recovery. Medical detoxification can help deal with the acute physical symptoms of drug or alcohol withdrawal. Behavioural therapies such as DBT and CBT can help address attitudes and motivation for changing and improve problem-solving. Combining this with group therapy can help maintain sobriety long after rehab. Not everyone is the same though and the treatment plan must fit the individual.

What are the benefits of residential treatment?
Staying at a residential rehabilitation centre gives you a chance to get away for a time from old environments. Under constant care and with the assurance of safety and security, you can focus solely on your treatment and getting better without having addiction triggers around you. Residential treatment is a full stop on your old life and gives you the chance to turn the page and start again.
