First we find out what you want and need. Then, together, we develop a plan to tackle your concerns and work out goals for your treatment. This plan might include individual counselling sessions or joining a selection of groups within our project.
Chorley Community Alcohol Services provides a range of easily accessed facilities from the St Thomas's Road premises, including: advice, information, assessment, brief interventions and extended brief interventions for pre-dependant drinkers and their families. We also work in partnership with the providers of specialist alcohol treatment for individuals with more complex health and/or mental health issues associated with their drinking, or who have become chronically dependant, to provide a range of aftercare support, such as relapse prevention, auricular acupuncture, abstinence and maintenance support groups, and non-alcohol focussed social activities.
Funded by Chorley & South Ribble PCT, Chorley Community Alcohol Service also provides a community-based service for both triage assessment and brief/extended brief interventions via designated primary care venues (e.g. GP surgeries, Pathways Mental Health Resource Centre).
We also have a Specialist Alcohol Worker within Chorley General Hospital. This service will offer appropriately identified in-patients the option of an on-site assessment, brief interventions and consultation within the hospital environment, followed by community-based aftercare support.
ADS centres offer an exciting range of Therapeutic and Complimentary therapies, educational training and social activities. Ring us or come and see us for details.
