"my time at LLW Shanty Creek"

About: Shanty Creek Residential Rehabilitation Facility

(as a service user),

First time in rehab so it made me feel very anxious and sad however with the staff being very calm and respectful it made me feel very at ease. 

For me finding friends in a new place was difficult but i put that all aside and made so many friends :) 

the team helped me very much i am now more confident then i have ever been..

Hello,

Congratulations on taking the step to seek support at Shanty Creek,

It is a big commitment to yourself staying in rehab, so your feelings are very valid. I am glad to hear that many of your worries or concerns were broken down once you entered the program and met the staff and other residents.

I will pass this message on to the team who I am sure will be happy to hear from you.

Thanks again for sharing your experiences, it helps so much for others who might be thinking about reaching out.

Remember to stay in touch, and we are always here if you need anything in the future.

Kris
