Delamere

Can I have visits from family and friends?

On a guest's second Sunday at Delamere, they can participate in our 'Family and Friends Connection Day.' This allows two family members or friends to visit the clinic. During the visit, our team provides education and insight around addiction, recovery, and mental health. After the session, loved ones can visit in the communal areas of the clinic. Later in the guest's stay, there is an opportunity for offsite leave with friends and family. All on and offsite leave options are optional and will be managed carefully and safely with the support of the Delamere team.

Are there support services after I leave treatment?

Our weekly aftercare program lasts for 15 months and offers an opportunity for you to stay connected and celebrate your new life, knowing that we are here to support you.
