Unfortunately, there is only one centre – located in Shotton – which provides alcohol rehab in Flintshire. Learning a little bit about the centre and working out whether it meets your requirements is an important part of getting the right care for yourself or your loved one. If not, you can travel to a neighbouring county for treatment or use our telephone counselling service. Most drinkers won’t need medical assistance during withdrawal, so telephone counselling is a viable option if you can’t make it to Shotton. There is a small fee for the service, but it removes travel expenses and makes treatment easier to fit in with your schedule.
The alcohol rehab in Shotton offers a comprehensive array of services to drinkers of any age. At the lowest level, general advice on drinking, help with the criminal justice system and harm reduction services are available. Harm reduction is concerned with making drinking as safe as possible instead of forcing abstinence, so they offer drinkers sexual health services and advice on things like drink-spiking. They provide detoxification on both an inpatient and outpatient basis and help with the psychological side to addiction through structured counselling. This tackles the root causes of addiction and teaches drinkers new coping mechanisms to remove the need for alcohol. The centre also operates day programmes, which combine counselling with other activities for a more holistic approach to treatment.
Although there is only one alcohol rehab in Flintshire, it is suitable for the majority of drinkers. If you’re not sure if it’s right for you, we have a detailed knowledge of the different centres across the country and can suggest the best options to you. We’ll answer any questions you have about treatment and ensure that the centre you choose matches up to your needs. Our advice is completely free, so pick up the phone and get in touch!
