Drever Associates: Expert all-inclusive treatment packages for alcohol addiction in Woking, Surrey

When you've made the decision to stop drinking, the team at Drever Associates is ready to help.

There's always a reason why people use alcohol - to numb, to escape, to forget. Unfortunately, when an addiction becomes established, we become powerless over the alcohol, and our lives become unmanagable.

The intensive Drever Associates alcohol treatment package works to uncover the multitude of factors which underpin the need for ongoing alcohol use, and helps bring about lasting change.

A life without alcohol is possible - let the professionals show you how. 

All-inclusive alcohol treatment package

The intensive treatment package for alcohol addiction offered by Drever Associates is a complete service which offers all the following, in a comfortable, elegant environment:

• Expert treatment on a respected alcohol programme

  Over twenty-eight focused days, you'll take part in group and individual sessions, including specific exercises tailored to your particular circumstances. In the early part of your journey, you'll complete a Life Story, which systematically examines everything that has taken you to where you are now. Other exercises, including therapeutic collages and the AA Step One, build on this, step by step.

• Medical care

  At the beginning of your treatment, you'll have a medical check-up, including a thorough blood screen. These results will be discussed with you, and lifestyle recommendations made, in order to maximise your long-term health. In addition, the services of a house doctor will be at your disposal throughout your stay.

• Detox and medication

  If required, medically-assisted detoxification will be provided, allowing alcohol to leave your system safely and comfortably. High-intensity vitamin supplementation is often also provided, as are any other medications required for your overall health. 

• Personal reviews with Dr Ian Drever MB ChB MRCPsych: Consultant Psychiatrist

  Appointments throughout the week with Dr Drever, to monitor progress and implement treatment changes as necessary.

• Weekly family support sessions

  Families and loved-ones can often feel excluded from the process of recovery, so this programme offers weekly family sessions, enabling them to be part of the long-term solution to help keep you well.

• Daycare and secondary treatment

  Further daycare sessions can be arranged, to enable a smoother step-down of care, once you're back at home. If required, there are links with excellent secondary-care facilities, allowing you to continue your recovery for several more months in long-term specialist facilities.

• Aftercare

  At the end of twenty-eight days, the support continues, with weekly aftercare meetings provided for a full year. 

• Adding value with extra benefits

  To make your stay with Drever Associates even more productive, they have incorporated these complimentary extras into the Alcohol Treatment Package:

• Medical follow-up sessions

  Two appointments with Dr Drever after discharge, to monitor your wellbeing and devise strategies for ongoing success.

 

• Email support

  A full two months' of support after you leave the Priory, focused on keeping you well.

• Attendance at local recovery meetings

  In the evenings, attendance is arranged at local AA meetings, where you'll be able to form links and build a long-term support network.

• Lifestyle and professional services

  In addition, you'll have access to the following services:

1. Yoga sessions

2. 24-hour nursing and medical support
