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 me?
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 but still want to begin their recovery journey. Speak to a member of our team to know which is more suited for you.
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. Our programmes typically last between 7 to 28 days, but can be up to 90 days. Many people 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 to ensure continued guidance after discharge.
What addiction treatments are available?
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. Patients often reach out after seeing the impact of addiction on their work, relationships, or health.
Do I have to travel far from Preston to access treatment?
Your nearest Ocean Recovery Centre is less than a 40-minute drive from Preston city centre on the Lancashire coast. Many people choose us because the centre is close enough to reach easily, but far enough from home routines and triggers to focus on recovery.
What types of addictions do you treat?
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)
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.
Can family members be involved in the rehab process?
Addiction often affects the whole family, and we’ll encourage loved ones to be part of your recovery journey. We provide family therapy sessions, educational workshops, and guidance on how to support a relative during and after rehab.
How soon can I be admitted from Preston?
We understand the urgency of getting help. In many cases, you can be admitted within 24 hours, depending on availability and medical assessments. Give us a call on 01253 847 553 to discuss your options.
