jakesideas Posted October 14, 2007 Share Posted October 14, 2007 Hello I am looking for a center for alcohol rehab for a Thai guy that has been drinking for many years but was recently involved in an accident and now has to give up alcohol so he can drive again. He is from the countryside so it may be difficult to get him into a program but I would like to find something for him as he is in trouble. Any ideas, phone numbers or websites of places of rehab in Thailand for Thai people? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't add too much to this other than I read an article some months back that some temples were offering such rehab for alcohol and drugs addicted folks. Sorry can't be more helpful.

Eddiee Posted October 20, 2007 Share Posted October 20, 2007 Drug & Rehab centre (mentioned in this post) in Khon Kaen is one of the best in Thailand. A friend of mine has just finished a 4 month course there were I visited every 2 weeks, staff are great & the centre is very well kept (clean etc) and so far treatment seems to be working fine. Made a lot of friends there on my visits. The address is mentioned earlier in this post along with phone numbers etc, however a good landmark is its located almost right next to the army base in Khon Kaen.

Regards Sorry for "necro-posting", but I am in urgent need of getting to this place in Khon Kaen, but since I am navigationally challenged (i.e. idiot-with-maps), I rely on GPS navigation. Can anyone please help by pinpointing it on Google Maps or Wikimapia? Coordinates would be most welcome. I've tried finding it by getting a map sent to me from there, but it's in Thai and the closest I can get to it is 16°28'8.44"N, 102°48'3.89"E. Thank you very much in advance. — Möe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
