Rehabilitation Services – Melbourne

Additional Services

Malvern Private Hospital is Australia’s leading provider of drug and alcohol addiction rehabilitation and recovery treatment programs. It is a fully accredited private hospital, with second edition National Quality in Health Care Standards and health fund endorsement.

If you or someone you know is struggling with addiction, we encourage you to contact us today. We are here to help you start your journey to recovery.

Our Approach to Addiction Treatment Is By Treating The Whole Person.

Flexible Stay Drug and Alcohol Addiction Recovery Treatment Program

Psychiatrists, Addiction Medicine Specialists and General Practitioners will oversee your medical needs during your admission. Many comorbid or dual diagnosis psychiatric and medical conditions can thus also be treated during your admission. However, we are not a facility for treating psychiatric conditions of those who do not have addictions.

Malvern Private has an on-going relationship with industry sectors associated with the safety sensitive professions such as Medical, Nursing, Aviation and Transport to ensure their compliance with returning to the workforce. However, please speak with Assessment staff for further information by calling 03 9885 9621.

A Tailored Care Solution

A Holistic Approach

Our aim to provide a rounded program, offering not only withdrawal from drugs and alcohol, but a range of therapies and tutorials to focus on mind, body and soul, restoring optimal health. Before any person is admitted, they will undergo a pre-admission assessment by an Assessment.

This is a face to face interview and takes about an hour. Our assessment staff will discuss client history, and thoroughly brief the client on all aspects of the program so they can make an informed decision as to whether the program is suitable for their needs.

 

The Rehabilitation Phase

  • Introduction to a range of therapeutic approaches to recovery, from trained, experienced and dedicated staff.
  • Psychological interventions include 1:1 therapies and group psychotherapy sessions.
  • Abstinence based mindset
  • Individual and group counselling sessions.
  • Therapeutic listening and problem solving programs, focusing on specific situations with individually tailored strategies.
  • Art therapy.
  • Exercise: walks, yoga or relaxation sessions.
  • Intensive group therapy, sharing experiences and stories with others in recovery.
  • Healthy ways to reduce anxiety and improve sleep.
  • Real time practice in attending AA meetings, NA meetings, GA meetings and in-house meetings.
  • Formal discharge planning to increase the likelihood of success after discharge.
  • Liaison with recovery support accommodation providers where needed.
  • A separate support and education program for families.

 

Abstinence Based Program

Malvern Private ensure that patients are discharged free of Alcohol and Drugs, that’s why we are considered one of the best Rehabilitation Centres Melbourne has to offer. We do not prescribe maintenance doses of medication, as we believe this is a benefit to long-term success. We also firmly believe that abstinence is possible.

 

The Withdrawal (Detoxification) Phase

Detoxification is different for every client and the detoxification process can last for several days. We do not prescribe maintenance doses of medication. During the detoxification or withdrawal period, we utilise medications minimally.

 

Discharge Planning

The treating team will collaborate with the client during their stay to prepare a plan for discharge and beyond.

This discharge plan includes:

  • Attendance at the Day Program and Continuing Care Programs.
  • Continued education and support at the Family Support Program if needed, so they understand how to best support recovery.
  • Attend AA/NA/GA meetings on a regular, ongoing basis.
  • Develop a relationship with support persons such as a sponsor, counsellor or therapist.
  • Develop a crisis management plan.
  • Address urgent practical problems before discharge.

If you require community services post discharge, these will be organised prior to your discharge.

Where required and practicable, arrangements will be made for clients to go into supported accommodation post-discharge.

Success Stories

Proof that recovery is possible

"Malvern Private Hospital quite literally saved my life, but that was just the beginning. The therapeutic programme they provided gave me a rock-solid foundation for lasting recovery from my 25 years of alcoholism. It was the most deeply challenging experience of my life, I can’t lie. But I came away with a full understanding of my addiction and the underlying trauma that drove it, and a blueprint for how to heal over time. I gained a radically altered attitude to life and a heap of tools to help me maintain my sobriety in the outside world. "

Ben B 2023 Thriving in recovery from Alcohol Addiction

"After 16 years of a vicious addiction to multiple substances, I found that no matter how I tried to clean up I would slip back into the same cycle of scoring, petty crimes, court and then self detoxification all to no avail. After realising I wasn’t able to stop myself and my loving family was not either, we found Malvern Private on the internet. I arrived not knowing what to expect but I can honestly say the tools/education I received there was what I was missing in all my previous attempts and the experience of the staff. I am now clean from all drugs and can honestly say I have never been happier in myself. My confidence is growing, and I feel I can tackle any challenges life brings good and bad. "
