Mini Series 3 - Is travelling abroad for treatment a major issue?

Published: July 21, 2023, 8 a.m.

In this podcast, we ask the question... Is traveling abroad a major issue?

One can imagine the questions that arise when families consider treatment abroad. Not only are they potentially sending their loved ones to an unfamiliar place, but they are also taking an understandable risk in seeking treatment in a foreign country.

  1. The challenges of traveling abroad for treatment depend on what country is chosen as the location for treatment and what experience the client has had with international travel.
  2. Safety is the major issue for most families. Safety as to the country itself and safety as an individual in an unfamiliar treatment setting. Both issues need to be researched in advance of any conversation with the treatment centre.
  3. If the family or the client has no or little experience with foreign travel, then everything from the need for passports, visas, and specific entry requirements should be well understood before concrete plans are made.

Here at SafeHouse Rehab, we help make traveling to Thailand as easy as possible. We guide our clients through the travel process, and even help them obtain a passport if so required. We pick our clients up at the international terminal and drive them safely to our treatment centre.

Our clients tell us that traveling to SafeHouse in Thailand was not nearly the challenge they thought it would be. That\u2019s what we want for them - a smooth transition to our treatment centre in the land of smiles.
