Private rehab Wales

The short answer

Private residential rehab Wales starts at around £4,500 for a 28-day programme and rises with setting and medical cover. Wales has limited private residential capacity, so private admissions usually mean crossing into the South West, the Midlands or the North West. Prices follow the English market rather than a separate Welsh one.

Comparing aftercare Wales

Because treatment is usually out of area, ask specifically how aftercare works remotely and what is available near home before you commit to a clinic.

  • How many months of aftercare are included in the fee, and what happens after that
  • Whether aftercare is in person, online, or both
  • Whether family sessions are included
  • Whether relapse means paying for a full second admission
  • Who you call at 9pm on a Saturday in month three
