Addiction Treatment Options Near Preston

People seeking help in Preston can choose between NHS and private services:

  • NHS addiction treatment services are accessible through GPs, Change Grow Live (CGL), or local council-funded programmes. While effective, they may involve waiting lists and limited residential care.
  • Private rehab clinics provide fast access, personalised support, and residential treatment – offering a more comprehensive recovery journey.

Whether you need alcohol rehab, drug rehab, or ongoing therapy, both options play a vital role.

Frequently Asked Questions

Choosing the right rehab treatment provider can be a life-changing decision; here are some of the most common questions we are asked pre-admission.

Is inpatient or outpatient treatment more suitable for Preston residents?

Both options are available to residents of Preston. Inpatient treatment provides a structured environment with 24/7 medical support, making it ideal for those with severe addictions or unstable home environments. Outpatient treatment may be more suitable for individuals who have milder addictions, strong family support, or work commitments in Preston but still want to begin their recovery journey.

How long does drug or alcohol rehabilitation last?

The duration of rehab depends on the severity of the addiction and the progress made during treatment. At our centre, programmes typically last 7, 14, 21, or 28 to 90 days. Many Preston residents choose a 28-day residential programme as it provides enough time to complete detox and engage fully in therapy. We also provide up to one year of free aftercare support in Preston, ensuring continued guidance after discharge.

What addiction treatments are available at the Ocean Recovery Centre for Preston residents?

We offer evidence-based treatments tailored to each individual, including:

  • Medical detox under professional supervision
  • Cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT)
  • Group therapy and peer support sessions
  • Holistic therapies (such as yoga, meditation, art therapy)
  • Personalised relapse prevention planning
  • Family support and therapy for those affected in Preston

How do I know if I need professional help for my addiction?

If you or a loved one is struggling to control substance use, experiencing withdrawal symptoms, or noticing a decline in mental, physical, or social well-being, it may be time to seek help. Residents of Preston often reach out after seeing the impact of addiction on their work, relationships, or health. A confidential assessment can help determine the best treatment path.

Do I have to travel far from Preston to access treatment?

No. Ocean Recovery Centre is the closest rehab facility to Preston, based less than an hour’s drive from Preston city centre. Many of our clients from Preston choose us because of our close proximity, which allows for convenient access to treatment while still being far enough away from home triggers.

What types of addictions do you treat for Preston residents?

We provide treatment for a wide range of addictions, including:

  • Alcohol addiction
  • Drug addiction (cocaine, cannabis, heroin, prescription drugs, and more)
  • Dual diagnosis (addiction combined with mental health conditions such as anxiety or depression)

Is rehab confidential for people in Preston?

Yes. At Ocean Recovery, we are committed to maintaining confidentiality at every stage of your treatment. Our rehab centre is discreetly located, and all of your personal information is handled with the utmost care and professionalism. You can feel confident knowing that your recovery is happening in a safe and private environment.

Can family members from Preston be involved in the rehab process?

Addiction often affects the whole family, and we encourage loved ones from Preston to be part of the recovery journey. We provide family therapy sessions, educational workshops, and guidance on how to support a relative during and after rehab.

What happens after I leave rehab?

We offer 12 months of free aftercare, including weekly support groups, relapse prevention planning, and continued access to counsellors. This helps maintain long-term recovery and prevents relapse.

How soon can I be admitted from Preston?

We understand the urgency of getting help. In many cases, Preston residents can be admitted within 24 hours, depending on availability and medical assessments.
