Abbeycare Scotland

What treatment does it provide?

Abbeycare Scotland offers residential treatment for adults aged 18 and over. Its programme includes assessment, supervised detoxification where needed, therapy and aftercare planning.

Residents stay at the clinic during treatment. The team assesses physical health, mental health and other needs before admission to establish whether it can provide suitable care.

Ask the admissions team about the proposed length of stay, medical support and the treatment plan for your circumstances.

Therapy and the Twelve Steps

Abbeycare describes its approach as a recovery community model. Its programme uses cognitive behavioural therapy alongside education about addiction, Twelve Step interventions and peer support.

Participation in the therapeutic programme and mutual aid is part of its published admission criteria. Ask the team how these elements work during a stay and how they support recovery afterwards.

Who pays for treatment?

Abbeycare is a private provider. Its Scottish residential rehabilitation listing identifies these admission routes:

• Self-funded treatment.
• Approved Alcohol and Drug Partnership funding.
• Prison to Rehab referrals.
• Private medical insurance.

For public funding, contact your local alcohol and drug service and ask about assessment for residential rehabilitation. Funding and admission must be approved; listing a funding route does not guarantee a place.

For private payment or insurance, ask for written confirmation of costs, what treatment and aftercare are included, and any approval required from your insurer.

Aftercare and family involvement

Abbeycare includes aftercare planning and continued recovery support in its description of treatment. It also offers family therapeutic support.

Ask what is available to your family, how support continues after discharge and whether any part has a separate charge.
