Alcohol rehab is a hugely important step in the right direction if you, or a loved one, is suffering from the weight of alcohol addiction.

The Process Of Alcohol Rehab: Step-by-Step

Alcohol rehab has a particular structure, this is a researched level of addiction treatment that is tailored to your situation, while the bones of the recovery journey stays the same. That being said, these are the steps that you can expect to take during you time in alcohol rehab.

Step 1: Pre-Admission Assessment

Prior to the treatment programme, our programme kicks off with a thorough assessment via phone call in which we find out about you, your addiction and how advanced your alcohol use disorder is.

Whether you have gone through a self referral or have been referred by a family member, loved one or colleague, we will take you through the admissions process 1-2-1 so you can address any qualms or worries that you have about alcohol treatment.

The assessment will explore the client’s medical and addiction history as well as the client’s family and social life. This will help us determine the right treatment process and if you’re suffering from alcohol use disorder or not.

As well as that, we will get to understand whether it is solely alcohol abuse that you’re suffering from, or, whether it is a combination of drug abuse too.

Information obtained during the initial assessment will be utilised throughout the rehab process, as here at Cassiobury Court, we offer a fully personalised rehab programme for each and every person as we understand that it is not a one-size-fits-all.

Step 2: Admission to Alcohol Rehab & Detox

Once you have an understanding of what alcohol addiction treatment consists of within our alcohol rehab facility, you will receive an admission date. Once you arrive, you will be put through a medically assisted detox which flushes the alcohol and any drugs if necessary out of your system and makes for a clean start physically.

Withdrawals can be pretty nasty when fought alone, which is why having medical assistance through the means of medication and professional assistance is crucially important to the management and success of a detox.

You’re then able to begin the psychological aspects of recovery to tackle alcohol abuse and this is when the intense therapy sector of inpatient treatment begins.

Step 3: Evidence Based Therapies

The next step you take within alcohol rehab inpatient treatment is therapy. This is different to the support groups that you may have taken part in before, they are more intense and much more tailored to addiction.

Group therapy and individual therapy sessions are offered to clients following the initial alcohol detox. These therapies are used in order to build new positive mindsets which aid a long and lasting recovery, with one of the most common forms of therapy being cognitive behavioural therapy.

Alcohol Addiction help is available in many forms and each person will be assessed for suitability for various therapies. We understand when you visit our alcohol rehab clinic you may feel in a vulnerable position.

This is why, our team here a very experienced at helping you feel comfortable and settled whilst you progress through your programme. These programmes are designed to combat alcohol use disorder and are carefully composed of therapies that are designed to help you return to everyday life and deal with triggers once you’re discharged from rehab.

Your alcohol consumption will be put at bay during these therapies and you will be with like minded people who can truly empathise with what you’re going through. You’ll also be able to access 24/7 assistance from medical professionals so we can ensure that you’re on track consistently.

Step 4: Aftercare Post Alcohol Rehab

Following the initial alcohol detox phase and therapy, our rehab programme offers 12 months of aftercare.

This, alongside the encouragement of outpatient alcohol rehab sources make for a comprehensive programme that combines outsourced support groups and Cassiobury Court’s aftercare to help you avoid relapse and stay sober for the long haul.

We ensure our clients receive the support needed for a long and lasting recovery. We recognise recovery is a lifelong process, and one that you can achieve with our help so you can leave alcohol dependence as a part of your past.

How Long Will My Treatment Last For?

The duration of alcohol addiction rehab varies and the duration is typically dictated by the severity of the alcohol addiction.

Nonetheless, there are a couple of common approaches. The most effective and popular length of stay is a 28-day treatment programme; however, you are able to attend our programme typically between 7 and 90 days.

The more chronic the alcohol addiction, the longer the recommended stay will be. Severe alcoholics who have been drinking alcohol for many years may encounter more difficulty during the process so a longer stay in rehab is recommended. Prices of alcohol rehab of course fluctuate depending on the length of stay, you can find out our prices below for each kind of stay.

Alcohol Rehab via the NHS

Some people qualify for public funding to assist in the fight against alcohol addiction, since local councils have administered statutory addiction services since 2012.

In order to qualify for statutory alcohol rehab funding, your needs will be triaged and the decision to grant you funding will be fully assessed by a committee.

The good news is, that Cassiobury Court is an NHS-qualified provider unlike the majority of private rehabs.

We can proudly say that our alcohol rehab programmes can be funded by the NHS if you are strictly a Hertfordshire-based resident as part of our NHS partnership

In most instances, when seeking treatment through the NHS you will be granted access to outpatient/community-based treatment before access to residential treatment is granted. From our experience, it is extremely difficult to access these services without suffering from a significant mental or physical health problem.

The vast majority of people seeking alcohol addiction treatment will be denied access to them due to strict and arguably unfair triage rulings. Furthermore, even when council-funded rehab is offered, you must typically wait many months until this decision is granted in your favour.

We have a consistent sector of our alcohol rehab beds free for those who are seeking alcohol treatment through the NHS. This means that you can have the benefits of managing withdrawal symptoms, 24/7 medical care and luxury recovery all thanks to the exclusive partnership between the NHS and Cassiobury Court.

Should I Go Through Alcohol Rehab at Home?

Undergoing a detox for alcoholism is undoubtedly not the most comforting experience you will ever undergo. Many people who require an alcohol detox may thus be attracted to the idea of undergoing this process from the comfort of their own homes.

This is a crucial part of the process of alcohol treatment and a hurdle you must pass if you want to finally end the addiction cycle.

At Cassiobury Court, we neither offer nor recommend undergoing alcohol rehab at home, and studies have shown that residential rehab can be an extremely effective alcohol addiction treatment which is precisely why we recommend residential alcohol rehab over any other alcoholism treatment.

Why? Because undergoing an alcohol rehab is a potentially life-threatening experience – especially if withdrawal symptoms haven’t been experienced previously.

When you undergo a rehab programme from your home, you do not have access to the same level of safeguards that exist when you undergo the procedure at a residential alcohol rehabilitation facility.

In addition, you could have a routine of drinking alcohol at home, removing yourself from this environment will remove one element of your habit whilst you focus on recovery.

Alcohol Rehab Vs Alcoholics Anonymous

First and foremost, whether you choose residential alcohol rehab or an outpatient alcohol rehab centre both are options that lead to a healthy and fulfilling life, free of alcohol.

Alcohol rehab and Alcoholics Anonymous (AA) should not be directly compared or offered as an alternative to one another, in fact they work best as a pairing together.

Alcoholics Anonymous and alcohol rehab are complementary to one another, AA intends to assist people who are already in recovery and who now wish to avoid relapse. Both strengthen each other, and we strongly advise you to attend AA meetings once your alcohol rehab programme has concluded alongside your free aftercare.

As part of most after-care packages, people will be introduced to the benefit of attending weekly Alcoholics Anonymous meetings. By attending these meetings you can reduce the risk of relapse and gather community support from other people who have endured the same troubles. Although it can be nerve-wracking when you don’t know what to expect at an AA meeting, meetings are inclusive and supportive.

By talking to other alcoholics, you can find out what helped them through their own personal battle with addiction, this sharing of information can be invaluable in your own recovery.

Can I Pay for Alcohol Rehab With Health Insurance?

You may pay for alcohol rehab through a valid medical insurance policy. Many leading health medical insurers such as BUPA, AXA, Aviva, Cigna, JSIS and Aetna will cover the cost of treating alcohol in rehab.

A medical health insurance policy may pay for all or part of the costs involved when you undergo alcohol rehab. You must check the terms of your policy and preferably correspond directly with your insurer when enquiring about this possibility.

At Cassiobury Court, our admissions team will be glad to advise you on the process involved when making this claim through your medical insurer. Many of these insurance companies have Cassiobury Court as a preferred alcohol rehab provider.
