Why residential care gives alcohol recovery its best chance
Alcohol is deeply embedded in everyday social life in a way that most other substances aren’t. It’s at every dinner, event, and social occasion. Outpatient treatment asks you to change while staying inside that environment, which makes the process significantly harder than it needs to be.
Removing yourself from that entirely for 28 days changes what recovery is actually possible. Our private alcohol rehab treatment programme is residential because the distance from triggers, routines, and pressures gives you a meaningful clinical advantage.
Clinicians who understand high-stakes dependency

FAQs about heroin rehab
What is the reality of opiate withdrawal?
It’s a significant physical process, but one our medical team manages completely. Most people find it far more manageable than they expected, because they’re monitored and supported throughout rather than going through it alone.
Can you manage a transition off methadone or suboxone?
Yes. We design a phased, medically supervised route to complete sobriety for clients currently on maintenance medication. The goal is total independence, achieved at a pace that’s safe and sustainable.
How long does heroin rehab take?
A 28-day residential stay is the clinical standard, giving enough time for full physical detox and the start of the deeper psychological work. Extended stays are available for clients who need more time before returning to their lives.
My dependency started with a prescription. Does this matter?
It matters in the sense that it informs how we approach your treatment. Many clients at our opiate addiction rehab arrive via prescription painkillers. We build your programme around that specific history.
How secure is my personal information?
Completely. Nothing about your stay at our detox clinic for heroin addiction is shared without your explicit written consent. Who you tell, and when, is entirely your decision.
Do I need a referral to get started?
No. You can contact Charterhouse Clinic directly, and we handle everything from there. There’s no need for a GP referral unless you’d like us to liaise with your doctor.
