Our approach: The treatment programme at Priory Hospital Solihull aims to optimise patients independence. We support our patients recovery by assessing their abilities and needs, and developing psychological, emotional, social and occupational skills, alongside treating and minimising risk behaviours. All interventions aim to help the patient to maximise independence, understand the effect their experiences have on themselves and others, to help them to manage the impact of internal and external triggers on their behaviour, and ultimately to provide hope for a fulfilling future. These interventions include individual and group Psychological therapies, such as Substance Misuse, Relapse Prevention and Wellbeing, and Occupational Therapy, such as Cooking Skills, Budgeting and Life Skills.
