How to Choose a Recovery Programme

There are many factors to consider when choosing a recovery programme. You need to recover in a location that is suitable for you, surrounded by people who will work to ensure your journey is as comfortable as possible. Your GP can assess you, to determine if you need inpatient or outpatient care. Most public-funded facilities provide an outpatient-type recovery programme, with inpatient care, or residential rehabilitation, reserved for only the most severe addiction cases.

The type of programme to undergo is also important. Most centres offer the traditional 12-step program, with some others offering other alternatives. Oasis Recovery is known for its use of two different methods, the 12-step model and the Oasis Strengths programme. Location is also an important factor to consider. Oasis is located in Runcorn, with clients allowed to undertake supervised trips into town. This enables them to engage in community activities and maintain a connection with the real world outside of the treatment facility.
