My time at Linwood has been quite a journey. I had no idea what to expect but overall feel ready and well equipped for life on the outside. My therapy one on one sessions have been valuable and enlightening. The days have structure with staff support but the residents themselves support and aid recovery in a way that I was not expecting (in a good way). The accommodation is comfortable, clean and food acceptable. There are rules to be followed but they are all justified and necessary to aid recovery. The therapists assist your recovery but fellow residents help in ways that was unexpected. By sharing experiences with like minded people a realisation that your not alone is priceless. Overall I would recommend Linwood for treatment.

My admission wasn't a great experience, I wasn't made to feel welcome by the staff member who did the admission. If it wasn't for the fellow clients on my first day I don't think I would of been able to complete my stay. This being said now I have completed my stay i do feel ready to now leave with the skills that I have learnt.
