Welcome to Trevi House
We are a residential rehabilitation unit and have, since 1993 been offering treatment to women with alcohol and/or drug related problems. What makes us different and quite rare is that our residents are able to live at Trevi with their children.
Trevi House is both a home and a safe place, where mothers and their children remain together as a family unit. The needs of the women and their children are individually assessed prior to entry. We offer supported Detox and a structured rehabilitation programme mixed with flexible residential programmes arranged to facilitate the transition to an independent life, free from substance dependency.
Residents are involved in determining their own recovery programme, which is designed to encourage and develop increasing responsibility. In addition to group therapy, one-to-one counselling and associated work, the programme also includes leisure and social activities, which help to develop confidence and skills to cope successfully with a substance free life. All residents have an individually written contract which explains admission to the programme and the expectations placed upon them.
In preparation for leaving, the women are supported by a Resettlement programme, which continues to enhance life skills.
Aims:
Our aims at Trevi House are:
-
To provide a warm, safe and friendly environment.
-
To treat all residents and their children as individuals, offering services which meet their needs.
-
To provide an understanding response to the needs and feelings of carers, visitors and give the women and their children the opportunity to live the life they deserve.
