The Scott

The Basics

Founded in 2010, The Scott was established by the family of Scott J. Lavin, a businessman and philanthropist who donated many resources to recovering addicts in his lifetime. With several private locations in Europe and the United States, The Scott offers luxury concierge treatment for clients struggling with addiction. The organization’s “treatment tourism” services are available to clients all over the world, and private transportation to and from the discreet locations can be arranged. The specific whereabouts are kept private, to ensure the anonymity and security of clients, but residential treatment occurs on the island of Kauai in Hawaii, and at undisclosed locations in France and Italy. A nationally accredited treatment center, The Scott has received the World Accreditation of Addiction Treatment Mark of Excellence (WAATME).

Accommodation and Food

Whether on a secluded tropical island or a European villa, accommodations at The Scott centers are luxurious and elegant. Ocean breezes greet guests as they emerge from private suites, with total privacy guaranteed. At the European locations, guests enjoy the serene countryside, once again assuring complete anonymity. The amenities are first-class, with pools, spas, saunas and exercise facilities that available for use. Televisions, Wi-Fi and a business center are available for clients that need to utilize them.

Organic meals are prepared by gourmet Chefs, with all dietary requests and requirements considered, provided they allow for a dietician-approved and nutritious diet. Accommodations are also available for assistants, entourage and family members that wish to accompany the client to treatment. The pet concierge option allows for the option of luxury accommodations for animal companions.

Treatment and Staff

The Scott offers highly individualized treatment plans for its clients that include up to 40 hours of weekly treatment. Treatment Des Concierge allows clients a la carte programs that can be administered in their own homes, if co-occurring disorders or other health issues prevent clients from leaving them. The inpatient programs are also highly personalized, with clients participating in finding treatment options that work for them.

The treatment team at The Scott consists of clinicians, therapists and addiction specialists that are leaders in their field. While clients are supervised and treated by a regular staff, many other professionals can be called upon to address specific needs as required. This means that all aspects of dual diagnosis can be supported, as can all forms of medication-assisted treatment, medical detox and holistic therapies. The treatment of co-occurring disorders also extends to trauma, pain management, sex addiction, PTSD, obesity, nicotine cessation, agoraphobia, shopping addiction and sleep disorders.

As treatment is so highly personalized, a typical day will look different for each client. Most participate in individual therapy, which will include components of talk therapy, CBT, DBT and EMDR, if desired. Group therapy is also available, with focus on relapse prevention and psychoeducation. The spa component of treatment allows for clients to enjoy massages, physical therapy and relaxation therapies as often as they would like. Exercise is incorporated into treatment through personal training sessions, yoga, and other fitness activities. Spiritual support is offered through 12-step meetings, religious practice and alternatives like meditation and mindfulness. Clients are encouraged to find a spiritual practice that works for them, and are supported in its implementation.

The multidisciplinary medical and therapeutic team works closely and communicates continuously to ensure a seamless continuum of care for the client. Treatment length is determined entirely by progress markers, though most stay at least 30 days, and clients enter independent living situations only when they are entirely ready.

Extras

The Scott offers treatment for clients with pain management difficulties, offering the same personalized and attentive care. Personalized interventions can be organized for any part of the world. Aftercare treatment is offered to all clients, with personalized outpatient treatment plans that aim to continue recovery while the client sustains independent living.

In Summary

Treatment at The Scott is aimed at eliminating the possibility of non-compliance, by offering every evidence-based and holistic treatment modality to clients anywhere in the world. Flying treatment teams to the client that cannot leave their home, or flying the client to one of the many worldwide locations gives clients at The Scott given every opportunity to gently confront their addictions. Indeed, The Scott offers comprehensive, scientific and client-focused care at discreet luxury locations and will even send a private plane to get you there.
