How Important Are Surroundings to a Rehab Clinic?

Making the decision to go to a rehab clinic is not an easy one. The decision can often be fraught with uncertainty, shame and of course doubt, and generally location is rather important for your choice of rehab clinic. Location is imperative for a lot of things at a rehab clinic – of course pretty scenery helps the healing process and makes the rehab clinic feel less like a prison, but scenery and location plays an even bigger part than this. Choosing an appropriate setting is so important to your choice of rehab clinic.


 


The location of a rehab clinic is important due to the fact that negative influences are everywhere. In the detoxification process, withdrawal is to be expected, and the symptoms of this can be truly horrific. There is the very real possibility that the withdrawal process will be a painful one. Therefore with cravings, plus withdrawal, the possibility of relapse is the highest due to cravings being mixed with duress.




It is imperative to choose a rehab clinic that provides all that they can to guide people through this, and location plays quite a part due to this for two particular reasons.




The first is that under duress, relapse is, as mentioned above, more likely. Removing opportunities to relapse is best for the individual, as one moment of weakness is all it can take for all of the good work they have achieved to be negated. Salus Withnell Hall is a rehab clinic which is placed amidst the countryside, in a remote location, to give an extra barrier against relapse.




In addition, proximity to friends and family is so important. While of course influences you’d rather not have will be prohibited from entering the rehab clinic, it is important to keep a link with those that love you. Of course moral support is provided throughout the rehab process by those also in treatment and  workers at the rehab clinic – but spending time away from home (let alone under quite a deal of urgency) is a very stressful experience.




The support friends and family can provide when they visit can really bring home the importance of the process, as well as the fact that there is something waiting for you when you return to the real world.
