Addiction Recovery – Full detox, continued care rehab (if required), sober living and volunteering package (6 months – 1 year)
I believe very strongly that if you are going to do something, particularly if you are going to put money into it, then it should be done having gathered accurate information and then done thoroughly. That’s why we have the full detox and rehab (alcohol detox or drug detox) along with the whole addiction recovery experience, all fully included in this tidy and affordable package. This 'CapeRecovery Experience' is designed specifically with value for money in mind. It comes once again from my own personal and professional experience that I have gained as a client in rehab and recovery myself and also as a nurse and counsellor working in the addiction field for many years. When I consider what makes truly effective addiction treatment, I always think about the question that, aside from the desire to change and the high quality of professional treatment, what are the other vital ingredients for a complete and successful recovery from any addiction, process addiction, dual-diagnosis issue or eating disorder? In my opinion, the next crucial items on the list would be the people that the individual beginning in recovery surrounds themselves with and then, the other proven ingredient, the length of time a person remains safe and involved in a fully supported, positive environment. I believe the combination of these things together, once the client is fully detoxed and educated about addiction and recovery as a whole, is the way forward in fully effective addiction recovery and that too many people sadly re-lapse simply because they rush through the process and attempt to become fully independent too quickly. I have always said that I don’t believe in quick fixes as they simply do not work, addiction and all the associated problems, creep up over years and even decades so they simply cannot be dealt with completely in 21 days or even a month.

As a response to our fresh way of doing treatment for any addiction (drug or alcohol), behavioural addiction (Gaming, Sex, Porn, Love, Gambling), dual-diagnosis issue (including depression) or eating disorder (including bulimia, anorexia, binge-eating and food addiction), we have introduced an all-in way of giving each client the best, tailored rehab and recovery journey, offering choice and quality throughout the entire rehabilitation process from primary, secondary, tertiary and continued care to fully supported sober living. We monitor the progress of each of our clients whilst they are in treatment, leasing with professionals and with their family back home, to give an all round open and transparent service. We put a lot of focus on aftercare and what happens next by encouraging social interaction with the recovery community here in Cape Town and providing many incredible volunteering opportunities! It is the only , all in one, rehab and recovery experience.
Full Detox and Rehab – Alcohol Detox and Drug Detox
The really unavoidable and indeed the most costly period of addiction treatment for most drugs and alcohol is the detox stage of the addiction rehabilitation process. Although our main goal is to save every single one of our clients money whilst providing the best service, we simply cannot take risks so we have to include this detox period. Although we do always keep any costs to a minimum whilst ensuring the comfort and the safety of each and every one of our clients. Failure rates for any kind of home detox attempts and even most of the out-patient treatments are unfortunately a great deal higher than any in-patient treatment and at the detox stage of the process, the client is at their most vulnerable, meaning that quality medical supervision is imperative. The failure to get and to remain clean and sober is also due to the fact that most addictions are just too difficult to stop alone, when surrounded by everything that is associated with using and easy access to the substance or the cause of the behaviour itself. This is why physically getting away is also a key factor in a fully effective recovery process. With all this in mind, we make the detox phase as efficient as is possible and include it within the first month of the primary rehab, however long it takes, so the cost is always kept as low as possible and the client has a real solid foundation for their recovery as a whole.

Continued Care, Sober Living and Volunteering
This is where CapeRecovery really works for you, our client, because instead of suggesting that there is just one particular route you or your loved one must go down for the next stage of treatment, we provide options for every one of our clients. The aim here is to provide consistent and fully supported care, without bias, in a recovery environment for as long a period as is possible, within a clients budget. Big monopolies in the rehab and addiction recovery business will not always be totally honest with you and may not mention that you do have other options. Obviously it benefits them to keep hold of people as long as they possibly can but now, the CapeRecovery process changes all that. Peoples circumstances are all vastly different and I know more than anyone that just because I came over from the UK it didn’t necessarily mean that I had an unlimited budget! The aim here is to offer choice, including costings for each option so that the client and their families are given more say on which route should be taken and we also discuss all the pros and cons of a particular route in an impartial and honest fashion. We have options of completing an entire two months of secondary treatment, which if at all possible is the best route but we also believe that if we can provide a longer supported experience utilising our sober living house then that's just as good too. For example, someone can stay for three months in a supported sober living environment at the same cost as a couple of weeks in a Secondary Rehab. Both ways work and it is of course, ultimately down to the choice of the individual and their family but I do believe in the time factor being key, the longer the better as far as I'm concerned, so I am happy to recommend either option for a truly effective full detox and rehab (alcohol detox and drug detox) along with the complete addiction recovery experience. Alongside this full rehab and recovery experience comes the unique opportunity to get involved with one or more of our charity projects and voluntary opportunities here in Cape Town, with our friends at African Sunrise, this gives our clients a real focus, drive and a fresh sense of purpose in their new, clean and sober, life.
