Our multi-disciplinary team comprises dedicated, very human, empathic professionals with the specialist knowledge, skills and expertise to support each patient and family member in his/her journey into recovery while optimising the treatment experience of all patients at our centres.
Our staff understand that there is much benefit to be gained for the patient from good teamwork. While patients will be assigned to the care of a counsellor, it is understood that the whole team shares in that responsibility. Our team members work across our treatment services and programmes.
