The Priory Hospital Nottingham

Gave me 2 weeks to get medicated get stable and reduce and come off the medication. Cannot be done! That's why all Lincolnshire funded patients fail. All other patients from other counties had 5 week minimum. Ridiculous outrage. It was a while ago I was there.. iv been twice fair few years between..,same experience. No tenderness no TLC no compassion. Just a job n paycheck feel.

The Nottingham Priory is unlike most other Priories in that it deals only with drugs and alcohol problems which is in my view a real advantage. Most other priory hospitals treat psychiatric conditions too. The 12-Step programme is not religious, or at least it is not meant to be. Unfortunately it gets taken over by overly zealous people and it can appear sinister. The facts are though that it is one of the most successful methodologies available. The only way to research what would suit you, other than visiting loads of clinics is to use a professional online referral agency such as Admit Services or WayAhead Rehab. Neither charges for their independent advice. Never pay a referral agency; you pay the clinic. But finding an ideal clinic is likely to be impossible. The Nottingham Priory suits a lot of people and there is little choice in Nottingham.

This place is like prison. There are a handful of food staff but the majority are cold and don’t care about your needs. They wake you up consistently about 2/3am and no one cares if you cry. The best you came expect is a shhh you’re disturbing other patients. Plus it’s super triggering as you are surrounded by others who are self harming and trying to end their life.Wouldn’t wish this place on my worst enemy. They don’t even have any tissues.
