Service Description
HMP Wormwood Scrubs Substance Misuse Service, Conibeere Unit, provides an inpatient detoxification unit and maintenance for HMP Wormwood Scrubs prisoners.
We offer an easily accessible service that aims to meet the needs of inmates who have substance misuse problems and want help to stop. Our aim is to provide a safe environment for inmates to detoxify from illicit drugs and/or alcohol. We also offer inmates health advice and information, and provide appropriate and effective treatment tailored to each individual inmate’s needs. In order to provide integrated care, we work closely with GPs, Drug Treatment Centres, CARAT Teams, In-Reach Teams, and other Services in order to provide support for resettlement and through care with Statutory and Voluntary Agencies.
There is an open referral system internally. To be eligible for the service, inmates must require alcohol or drug detoxification.
The unit is open daily between: 7.45am - 8.15pm.
