Oasis Runcorn

my time here has been hard being away from family but its the best decision i could of made ive learnt alot about myself and im going to carry on working on this.

I arrived at Oasis broken, drunk and desperate. I have spent the past 28 days attending meetings, learning about my strengths and also adopting strategies that will help aid me in being sober for life. The staff have been fantastic and I feel that they could not have done any more for me or my journey. I am so glad I made the decision to attend the Oasis Centre and would not hesitate to recommend it going forward, for detox, rehab or both.

Very supportive here and it has changed my life because it has made me more positive. I have made a lot of changes in my life since I have been here. Thank you to everyone here who has been supportive for the while time I have been here and helping me change my life.

My time at Runcorn was eye opening, i was stuck in active addiction and i have now learnt how to handle my feelings and deal with them accordingly. The staff have been mega and very helpful.

very supported and was given a lot of advice

On arrival, the staff at Oasis were very welcoming. They dealt with my physical health problems and explained the contract of the centre thoroughly. The community is like a family. I have made lots of friends that I will keep in touch with and I am truly grateful for my stay in Oasis. Sarah is the best therapist due to lack of therapists she has made an enormous effort for keeping the ship afloat. All the staff are really lovely. Kerry and Julie are really hardworking and always making sure that we are validated as people and don't feel any different to the outside world.

Overall, I am happy but I am feeling a little disappointed and feeling neglected in terms of my one on one therapy and attention from my therapist. Everything else, I can't complain about. I am feeling positive and motivated because I have finally had clean time. I am grateful for the people I have met and been introduced into this community. Staff have been fabulous! Kerry especially was always nice to me and asked me if I was okay all the time.

I have found it good and I have been taken care of. I would like to thank all the staff from the manager to the housekeeper and maintenance, to the support staff who gave me my medication to the therapist for everything they have done for me. I feel good about my next steps and my life in recovery.

I can't thank the staff and everyone in Oasis Runcorn enough for the support that I have had in the last 28 days of my recovery. I have gained a lot of knowledge and experience and met some amazing people whilst been here.

Made very welcome on arrival and was treated with dignity. Continuous care throughout my stay. Would have liked more 1 to 1s with my therapist but covered key learning skills points in process and DBT sessions. I personally think there should be more DBT sessions throughout the week.
