Providing detox treatment across Gt Yarmouth

The High Support Unit

The High Support Unit is a self-contained house attached to our hostel, where people can undergo a home detox treatment programme from alcohol or drug dependency. Treatment is supervised by a clinical community team. The High Support Unit Co-ordinator will support individuals throughout their stay in the unit.

How it works

The aim of the scheme will be:

				To provide a residential environment with a range of services to respond to the needs of individuals undergoing home detox treatment programme, either from alcohol or co-existing or singular illicit drug use
A focus on support for those on substitute mediation looking towards reduction and eventual cessation
To adopt a harm minimization approach to working with individuals within the context of their support and treatment plans
Expectation that there will be no use of illicit drugs or alcohol on the premises and treatment goals will be focused towards cessation as appropriate
To provide an holistic and flexible approach to delivering support, focusing on individual goals identified though individual support planning
Move towards a resettlement and or independent living plan, with the opportunity to reintegrate into the community to facilitate successful tenancy sustainability in the longer-term
To provide opportunities to improve life chances in terms of education, training and employment, as such delivered through a structured programme developed in partnership with external training providers
