Clean Slate
The Clean Slate Clinic program is thoughtfully designed to support individuals facing mild to moderate alcohol dependence. For those who find traditional detox services challenging to access, the clinic is an at-home, compassionate and flexible alternative.
What is it?
The Clean Slate program is a structured 12-month journey offering comprehensive care and support that goes far beyond the initial detox phase. Participants benefit from a personalised care plan that includes telehealth consultations with experienced doctors, regular check-ins with dedicated nurses, and guidance from peer workers who bring valuable lived experience to the recovery process.
With its remote delivery model, the program ensures accessibility for individuals in rural and regional areas, enabling members to start and sustain their recovery journey from the comfort and privacy of their own homes.
1. Preparation (2–3 weeks): Comprehensive assessments, blood tests, and personalised planning to set the foundation for success.
2. Detox (1 week): Daily video check-ins with a nurse and prescribed medication to safely manage withdrawal symptoms.
3. Aftercare (12 months): Continued support through regular nurse check-ins, peer guidance, and effective relapse prevention strategies to maintain long-term recovery.
