Abbeycare Foundation

Abbeycare Foundation is the one of the only private alcohol treatment centres in the UK that deals exclusively with alcohol addiction and its associated health and social problems.

Situated in a discreet, safe and tranquil setting, accommodation is in an 18^th Century manor house. Surrounded by gardens, there are plenty of places that allow for quiet contemplation, or reading.

Only six patients stay at the house at any one time. A large double en-suite room is available for all patients. Abbeycare Foundation employs their own Chef and dietician and patients are invited to discuss their dietary needs and menu planning on a weekly basis.

At Abbeycare Foundation, it is not believed that anyone can be cured of alcoholism but that life without alcohol is not only possible but sustainable by empowering the individual to take control of their lives and live a happy and fulfilled life.

Types of Treatment Programmes Abbeycare Foundation Offers

Abbeycare Foundation offers a diverse and comprehensive program of recovery. An initial telephone assessment can be made and the patient and their loved ones can discuss options available. Following assessment and admission, a unique treatment plan will be prescribed for the individual. This is undertaken with the involvement of both the patient themselves and their allocated key worker to enable the optimum care plan to be developed.

Detoxification from alcohol is a complex process requiring medication and is fully supervised. The aim is to make the process as relaxed, comfortable and effective as possible. Within days, medication can be decreased and participation in the full therapeutic programme can occur.

At Abbeycare Foundation, the therapeutic programme operates daily. Most days will begin with a session of meditation. Treatment also includes elements of: rational emotive behavioural techniques (REBT), cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), educational group work, motivational interviewing, the 12 step model and relapse prevention.

Lectures include motivational enhancement sessions which encourage and empower clients to refocus, realign and reframe life. Participation in the 12 Step programme of recovery is essential to recovery and three 12 step sessions are offered weekly.

At Abbeycare Foundation, alternative therapies are available which are designed to heal the body and mind. These include Swedish massage, Indian head massage, reflexology and reiki among them.

How Long Could Treatment for Alcohol Addiction at Abbeycare Foundation Take?

The clinic offers a minimum duration of 28 days, and can be longer in some cases. This is to make sure that both the physical and psychological side of the addiction are treated.
