A Holistic Approach

Drug addiction extends well beyond the health, mental and emotional wellbeing of the individual using the drug. More often than not it impacts and destroys relationships, families, job opportunities and finances. Drug addiction is not prejudice; it occurs in in all types of people, age, and backgrounds. The one underlying link that people do have in common however is they all need drug addiction help to overcome the disease.

Often it is very difficult for people to understand the complexity of a drug addiction. Because drug addiction is a disease that affects the brain, many struggle to understand why people using drugs cannot just stop. People fail to realise that over time, without drug rehabilitation services, drug use damages the structure and function of the brain, stopping the ability to think and act rationally. This leads to compulsive drug seeking behaviour, which is near impossible to stop. Thankfully, through drug treatment and drug rehabilitation clinics there is an opportunity to counteract the destructive hold of addiction and successfully regain control back.

Recognising and accepting there is a problem, that needs essential drug rehabilitation, is a major and essential step to beating any addiction. The important thing is to take action, to get started.

The addiction rehabilitation admission and referral process is initially via the phone and can be done by self-referral, GP or by other doctors such as psychiatrists, psychologists and counsellors.

We one of the leading providers of alcohol and drug rehabilitation Melbourne has to offer, and provide an 7 day detox, 14 day detox and flexible residential, abstinence Drug and Alcohol Addiction Rehabilitation Recovery Program.

The Admission Assessment

Before any person is admitted to the Drug and Alcohol Addiction Rehabilitation Recovery Treatment Program, they will undergo a pre-admission assessment by a Melbourne rehabilitation Assessment Specialist. This is a face to face interview and takes about an hour. Our drug rehab clinic assessment staff will discuss your history, and thoroughly brief you on all aspects of the program so they can make an informed decision as to whether the program is suitable for their needs. Private Health cover checks are also completed during this time if applicable, so clients are fully aware of any out of pocket costs. Once these processes have been successfully completed an admission time can be scheduled.

We seek to achieve prompt and timely admission to our drug rehab centres because we realise that clients and their families often share a great sense of urgency when the opportunity presents for high quality drug rehab Melbourne clients trust.
