SURe provides recovery oriented services assisting individuals and their families who have been affected by substance use.

Intake & Assessment

  • Provides initial screening, assessment, advice and referral to alcohol & other drug treatment (AOD) services via telephone and in person.
  • In addition information and referrals to other services may be provided based upon the Individual Recovery Plan (IRP) that has been developed with you.
  • This could include referrals to other allied health services, financial, legal and housing services.

Counselling

  • After an assessment from centralised Intake & Assessment, you may be referred for AOD focused counselling as per your recovery plan. Counselling is provided individually within a family sensitive and inclusive framework.
  • Appointments are generally office based, up to an hour, with a duration of time being linked to your IRP.
  • The counselling will have goals that have been developed with you during your assessment.

Care & Recovery Coordination

  • For individuals who have been assessed as having additional complex needs, you will be offered coordinated and integrated pathways to your recovery.

Non-Residential Withdrawal

  • As part of your Individual Recovery Plan you may be eligible to receive withdrawal support in the community.

Getting Assistance

Making the decision to get assistance is never a simple or easy decision and we at SURe applaud you and will support you with your recovery goals. In getting the appropriate assistance, we will need to take you through a Screening and Assessment process, whereby you will develop your Recovery Plan to direct the appropriate services.

To commence this process you can either:

  • Call a clinician at SURe on 1300 00 SURe (7873) [Monday – Friday, 9am – 5pm]
  • Email your contact details to Intake.sure@each.com.au
  • Drop in at one of our offices and ask to speak to any SURe Clinicians
  • After hours contact Directline (1800 888 236) and request for a referral to SURe
