The Benefits of an Online Rehab Programme for Addiction
In recent weeks, the world has been greatly affected by the coronavirus. Many people in need of help for an addiction have struggled to get it. As a rehab in Thailand, we have remained open. However, at this time, like many other countries, foreigners are not allowed into the Kingdom. This means that Siam Rehab is open and ready to help anyone in Thailand with an addiction. That being said, our team of staff remains concerned about the wellbeing of those in other countries who may not be able to access help. This concern has led to an innovative development of an online rehab for addiction. This programme has been carefully created by Siam Rehab and is aimed at helping those in early recovery, as well as those who are already in recovery.
Included in our online rehab programme for addiction is the following:
- 3 individual sessions every week with a psychologist or addiction counsellor
- Group counselling sessions every day (Monday – Friday)
- Scheduled live educational groups conducted by an addiction counsellor followed by a Q&A
- Access to an online support group of peers who are in a similar situation
The Benefits of Attending an Online Rehab for Addiction
Today, many medical practitioners have taken their practice online. This has made it easier for patients in need of medical care to access it, but without having to go to the hospitals. Doctors and psychologists around the world have voiced a great deal of concern for those who are addicted to drugs or alcohol, but very limited in where they can go. The fact of the matter is that online medical care does work which is why we, at Siam Rehab, have developed one of the first online rehab programmes for addiction during the coronavirus.
Benefits of Participating in an Online Rehab for Addiction During the Coronavirus Pandemic
Immediate Access – Regardless of where you might be, and whether you have been placed in a lockdown situation, you can access our online rehab programme in just a few steps. There is no travel required and everything can be accessed in the comfort of your home.
Ideal for the Covid-19 Situation – At this time a number of countries have placed their citizens and residents on lockdown. Leaving their house for non-essentials is not allowed, and travelling to medical facilities is not recommended unless it is an emergency. For anyone who needs help with an addiction, an online rehab programme may be an ideal solution during the coronavirus.
Provides a Sense of Security – Overpowering feelings of stress, anxiety, and fear may be clouding the mind’s of people. For those struggling with an addiction, these feelings may be greatly exacerbated. Now is the time that an addict may need a sense of security and some level of stability. An online rehab for addiction can provide comfort, connection, and reassurance. The support can be tremendous and remind an addict they are not alone.
Reduces Boredom – Many people may be unsure about how to spend their time. Some, particularly those who may have had a routine, might feel helpless and bored. Boredom can be dangerous for anyone in recovery. By attending an online rehab for addiction, the sense of boredom can be greatly reduced. Every day, group sessions and online support can be accessed. Three days out of the week, counselling sessions are available. This is a great opportunity to explore feelings, discuss concerns, and occupy the mind.
Enables You to Set Goals – Online rehab can act as a precursor to an inpatient rehab programme. One might even consider it a type of “head start”. During this time, patients can identify goals they would like to reach and create a plant on how to get there.
Prepares You for Rehab – Many patients who participate in Siam Rehabs’ online programme will elect to come to our rehab in Thailand as soon as borders open. Not only does online rehab prepare patients for their inpatient stay, but they will have also had the chance to meet other peers and some of our staff.
In addition to our innovative online rehab programme, those who participate will be given priority admission to Siam Rehab’s inpatient programme as soon as the Thai borders reopen (and other countries open their borders as well). The fees for the online rehab may also be deducted from the primary care fees should you come to Siam Rehab.
