Therapeutic community

Client work is individual and collaborative, enhancing autonomy, using CBT relapse prevention, the 12 steps and MI. Clients are abstinent while in Francis House and it provides networking social support. Primary and secondary care are combined with clients progressing from one stage to the next. If a client has any difficulties in Francis House we can mutually agree a transfer to one of the other two StreetScene units.
Family meetings can be arranged with staff, and family members can contact the house to see how their client is progressing, with the clients consent. Other support can be provided or signposted for family members depending on need. Residents can have visits from children and families in first phase and have home visits in second phase.
