Primary rehabilitation
We offer residential rehabilitation for men and women who are affected by drug and alcohol addiction.
Primary rehabilitation takes place in a safe and caring environment where each client is fully advised and other professionals consulted as appropriate. The treatment requires the client to commit to undertake the programme and challenge their behaviours with alcohol or drug use.
The programme
We deliver the highest quality treatment for those suffering from chemical dependency.
Silkworth Lodge's residential rehabilitation programme is abstinence based and uses the 12 step programme of recovery. It is tailor made to each individual client and includes cognitive behavior therapy, motivational enhancement and relapse prevention. It takes place over a period of 6 to 12 weeks depending on the client and their needs.
House rules include the requirement to abstain from alcohol and drugs except those prescribed by the Silkworth Lodge Medical Doctor.
Silkworth Lodge can sleep up to 12 people at any one time. Clients will have their own room or share a twin. Various boundaries are in place to assure each client's privacy and dignity.
Silkworth Lodge provides a pathway to a better life free from addiction. A new client can expect to be welcomed into a safe and non-judgemental environment, where there are professionals who understand and can help you with this illness. Its so much more than maintaining abstinence, it is about regaining self esteem, rebuilding broken relationships, no longer feeling alone and developing healthy, happy and fulfilling lives. Confidentiality is a key component of our work with individuals and their families.
