Descriptor:

Dear Interested Party!

 


On behalf of the EGÉSZSÉGDOKK Public Benefit Foundation, I would like to introduce you to our Children and Youth Dictation Rehabilitation Institute in Székesfehérvár, opened on 1 September 2021.

The institution accepts girls and boys aged 12-18 years old into its residential addiction and psychiatric rehabilitation programme, which lasts 3-6 months, according to an individual plan. The rehabilitation home is located in the city centre of Székesfehérvár.

The rehabilitation programme uses elements of cognitive behavioural therapy, schema therapy, dynamic brief therapy and the Portage programme, as well as experiential education elements to enrich everyday life.

School education is an important part of the programme, and our beneficiaries can progress through the curriculum (depending on their condition) with the help of a teacher. If necessary, and if the condition of the person concerned so warrants, it is necessary to apply for private tutor status, for which our institution will provide a specialist opinion.

In parallel with the programme, family therapy with relatives completes the rehabilitation of children and adolescents.

The admission and pre-screening of people who need our services is carried out in our outpatient paediatric and adolescent outpatient department. The screening includes a motivational interview, HIV, Hepatitis screening and a chest X-ray. In addition, a psychiatrist and a clinical psychologist will determine whether participation in the rehabilitation programme is justified.

 


If you would like to delegate a patient to us, please contact our colleagues:

Our story

 

Between 2006 and 2010, during our youth work in Gárdony, we felt the need to create the Health Dock. From time to time, the Gárdony Reformed Congregation Youth Group was joined by several people who were seeking refuge and acceptance in our community because their lives had turned into some kind of bad life practice.

The Foundation was created primarily for them, so that they can find themselves in the community that is being formed, and get answers to their problems if they have already tried a mind-altering drug or become a substance abuser. And to experience how they can have a full life without drugs.

At the same time, we welcome anyone who wants to be part of a community based on acceptance and respect for each other, and to learn about themselves and others.

Our personal motivation lies in our God-given vocation for this work, as well as the recovered addiction history of our professional leader Gábor Gönczi.

Our staff carry out their work with a Christian approach and values, in harmony with professional and ethical considerations.

In memoriam Barna Ferenc Máté OP

In memoriam Barna Ferenc Máté OP

Father Máté is the pastor in charge of the Centre for Addiction Support and Drug Prevention - Conference and Mission Centre, who has been the pastor of the institution since 1 January 2012.

A friendship forged during an evangelism course in Pannonhalma became the basis for a common missionary adventure, with a special focus on working with addicts. We got to know a special person in him, who could approach everyone with openness and interest, and could talk and discuss even the most sensitive issues with unvarnished openness, without pretence, and in accordance with the truth. He has engaged in dialogue with addicted young people, alcoholic elderly, well-dressed intellectuals, the smart and the simple. He was a man of vision, who "saw the invisible", not only in the sense that the Truth he proclaimed was in harmony with his life, but also in the sense that he saw, he saw "what dwelled in man", he saw behind the problems.

When we remember him, we can recall his strong, dominant voice, which everyone knew when he was present. His eternal smile, his serene mood, which did not let him feel embarrassed by anyone or anything he encountered.

His sermons and teachings had a special flavour. Not only because he always put an unexpected twist into the explanation of the simplest, most often heard, most commonly known gospel details, but because anyone who listened to him felt that the experience of life was in harmony with the truth he spoke. Matthew's presence, the fellowship and the time spent with him was liberating, and it was no coincidence that he was loved by all those he met at the institution. His outlook on life, his thinking, and the gospel he preached, fulfilled something of the promise: "Whosoever the Son shall make free shall be free indeed!"

Your memory will be kept alive! Thank you for all that we have received from you. We bid you farewell in the hope of the resurrection!

János course in Kiskunfélegyháza

János course in Kiskunfélegyháza

It is a simple scriptural fact: Jesus chose his apostles from among his disciples, never from the crowd around him.
If this is so, how can I be a disciple?

The aim of the course is to become disciples of Jesus: disciples who want to be like him, the Master, in everything: to think like him, to judge like him, to believe like him, to forgive like him, to pray like him, to evangelize like him, to love like him, to live like him, to die like him.

The greatest honour is to be invited by Jesus to be his disciple, because he does not teach doctrine, but teaches us to live: to live with him, to be in intimate relationship with him, like his beloved disciple John, who was able to lay his head on his bosom.

 


From the topics of the course

Jesus' plan for discipleship;
The relationship between Master and disciple;
A day with Jesus;
The six relationships of the disciple;
The discipleship method of Jesus;
Our mission is...
It is enough for a disciple to be like his Master. (Mt 10,25)

Emmaus course in Kiskunfélegyháza

Emmaus course in Kiskunfélegyháza

It is from meeting God and getting to know him that a happy life flows.

God can be known. He is not a silent person, but a talkative person with something to say. A life-giving message. Do you hear God speaking to you? Jesus is the word of God to us. The Emmaus Course is an introduction to the Word of God - the Word of God - to give us life by reading, listening, following, living it.

In this course, we will walk the journey from Jerusalem to Emmaus, so that we too may have our hearts set aflame by the fire of God's Word.

This course will change our relationship with the Word. If you don't read daily, or if you feel you don't understand what you read, or if you don't know the Word well enough, come! We are waiting for you! The Word of God can set your heart on fire in this course, because it carries God.

The Emmaus Road
Seven images of the Word
The seven effects of the Word

Ex-drug addicts have been through hell

 

Ex-drug addicts have been through hell

FEOL.hu - Once addicted to drugs, they now help addicts who want to become sober.

The Health Dock Drug Outpatient Clinic also employs people who were regular drug users a few years ago. Some work there as volunteers, others full-time.

Vilmos Bozóki's job consists of welcoming clients, talking to them a little, and doing the housework. The 25-year-old first tried mind-altering drugs at the age of 12.

- What you need to know is that there are three phases of substance abuse: the "party is on", the "trouble is on" and the "I'm done" phase. It took me 11 years to get fed up. Over the years I have lost everything, even my family. At the very end I was homeless. I did not take myself into account. And to survive, I stole, cheated and lied", says Vilmos, who finally went to rehab at the age of 23:

- My case was interesting because I first asked for help without wanting to stop using drugs completely. I thought so: Okay, I'll go to rehab, put on a few pounds, and keep doing what I was doing. But when I got the right help, I realised it was better to stay sober.

Vilmos Bozóki and Frigyes Fülöp went through hell, but managed to get back on their feet. The young men are currently working at the Health Dock Drug Outpatient Clinic in Székesfehérvár.

According to Vilmos, it is much better when addicts can consult former drug users instead of doctors and psychologists. This makes identification much easier, and the now sober advisers are also more credible in the eyes of those who need help. Frigyes Fülöp, who works as a therapy worker at the drug outpatient clinic, feels the same way. It provides individual counselling, drug prevention and school lectures, as well as dealing with subsidised housing for people who have quit drugs. In fact, he even played a huge role in the beautification of the drug outpatient clinic. Frigyes first tried speed when he was 13 years old. The former addict was interested in drugs and his parents worked a lot.

- There came a break in my life. Three guys in my group of friends killed a man. Naturally, I was taken to the police, but it soon became clear that I had nothing to do with it. After I got out of the police station, the situation became even worse. I became a heroin addict. I managed to keep it a secret at home for a while, but it became a police matter, so my parents found out. At first my mum and dad tried to help me, but they didn't succeed. A popular doctor advised them to throw me out of their home so I would repent my sins, but they didn't. I moved to Budapest to live with a dealer and did drugs for 15 years.

Frederick got into trouble several times, committed crimes, spent three years in prison, and eventually became homeless himself. In the last 3-4 years of his addiction, he has been trying to consciously stop using. He has been in several rehabilitation centres, but there were also medical institutions where he was turned away because he was a heroin addict.

- I had a lot of negatives, for example towards the end of my addiction I broke the syringe in my right hand. I almost had to have my arm cut off, so I had five or six operations. After I got clean, I was haunted by my old crimes, my health deteriorated, my kidneys shut down, my stomach bled. I am still paying one major debt to this day. "You can't just undo 15 years of drugs," says Frigyes, who is now doing well.

Drug addiction is a complex issue

According to Zsolt Balcsik-Tamás, President of the Egészségdokk Public Benefit Foundation, addiction is a complex set of problems that affects the whole existence of the addict, i.e. health, psychological state and social relations, in addition to the financial ones. To really help patients, there must be an expert for each part of the problem. In addition to doctors, psychologists, legal advisers and social workers, former addicts can also work with clients.

You carry the cross of addiction for the rest of your life

You carry the cross of addiction for the rest of your life

 


FEOL.hu - How do you get to the point where heroin is your only friend, and what makes you find your way back to real life? - The brutally honest interviews in the documentary We're Rebuilding answer these questions, among others.

Attila Ferecz is thirty-three years old, newly married, working in an advertising agency. Gábor Gönczi is a married father of two children, head of the Health Dock Drug Outpatient Clinic. Tímea Kiss-Lukasik has turned forty-three and is currently a member of the Stop Group - they are like everyone else: they have families, loved ones and jobs. But the road they have taken to get here is bumpier than most. Together with Gábor Wenhardt, in his twenties, and Péter Józsa, in his thirties, they have all been through hell. They were drug addicts.

Or, as Kristóf Novák, the director and creator of the documentary film We are being built, says, they still are. Because there is no cure, the best the addict can do is to stop using drugs.

- The aim of the film We are building up is multifaceted. On the one hand, I wanted to tell the drug users who are still active today that there is no situation from which they cannot recover. On the other hand, the interviews have the unconcealed intention of shading the picture of addicts. Public perceptions of drug use are very extreme. You could say that society stigmatises drug users. I also hope that the film can be used for preventive purposes, because the truth is, in my opinion, the most we can show a teenager," explains Kristóf, who was surprised himself during the making of the film how honestly his interviewees talk about the past and share their recovery stories. Slips, no embellishments.

Tímea - this enlightened, mature woman - confesses to manipulating men with sex to get her drugs.
Gábor Gönczi embezzled, stole and robbed when he had to. Another tried to break into his friend's flat, under the influence of drugs, because of a fantasy. They have caused accidents, unwanted pregnancies and accumulated debts. Some were held at gunpoint, others spent the night in a stairwell, making a bed out of doormats, knowing that the only companion they had left in life was heroin.

The reasons vary: some people's parents were alcoholics, others were driven to the depths by a hunger for love, but there are also people who had everything free. And, of course, there is also curiosity. Most have followed a traditional drug career, progressing gradually from lighter drugs to hard mind-altering drugs.

- In one hand I was carrying a tray of shots, in the other I had pills. After an evening like that, I was taken straight from detox to my mother's. It was the first few hours in months that I had nothing inside me. I begged him to help me, crying - Gábor Wenhardt confesses in the film about one of his awakenings.

The first clear weeks were hard for everyone. Some people could not sleep and were plagued by epileptic fits. Withdrawal symptoms are, as they say, always testing.

- Recovering addicts face their past every day. Some people's whole lives revolve around this, those who have been clean for 10-20 years spend only a few minutes or hours of their twenty-four to reflect. They are constantly being built.

But how? They tell us about this too. Their narratives show that the risk of relapse is high even months after withdrawal.

- Information can be passed on quickly. To convey value, to teach people self-knowledge - that takes at least a year - explains Gábor Gönczi, who today works with his fellow migrants as a specialist.

Even after this, the chances of relapse are not low: you have to go back to a completely different environment to start afresh, not to be reminded of the drug.

Some people also draw strength from faith. In fact, during therapy, when they felt like nobody, it finally helped them to hold on to the idea that there is someone who can forgive, God.

- The film debuted last week and since then I've received a lot of positive feedback. The only thing the audience reacted strangely to was the question of faith. But you cannot leave this out of the story. For some of them, it is still a source of strength, part of their ongoing recovery," says Kristóf, who hopes that the film will reach all those it can help. Whether it is in recovery or in making a responsible decision when they are first offered drugs.

Suffer-Live! - Drug treatment home in Ráckeresztúr (video)

 

Suffer-Live! - Drug treatment home in Ráckeresztúr (video)

 


Ráckeresztúr... One of the first drug treatment homes in the country is here.  Where young men can get professional and human help to break free from drug addiction.

 

 

 

 

 

Adult addictology:

We provide outpatient addiction treatment for those in recovery, and we provide short and long-term drug and psychotherapy, both individual and family, according to the needs of the patient.

In our institution the care is free of charge, a social security card is required.

 

Family therapy: the systems approach sees the family as the source of the problems and the unit of therapeutic intervention. The focus of therapy is on the family, its subsystems and the individual's significant family relationships. In family relationships, mutuality through communication tries to create changes in the way experiences are experienced and processed, and in behaviour. In family therapy, the symptom or the symptom carrier represents the metaphorical dysfunction of the family as a whole.

 

Child and adolescent addictology:

Addiction care for adolescent addicts is currently the only addiction care in our institution with a national coverage.

 

We deal with the following problems in our children and young people's addiction unit:

drug and alcohol problems
drug addiction
behavioural addictions (e.g. gambling addiction, internet addiction)

 

What does the clinic deal with, what complaints, symptoms and illnesses can I come here with?

Care (diagnosis and therapy) for 10-18 year olds is provided in a team (team) by a psychologist, psychiatrist, family therapist and social worker.

Relief of psychological symptoms resulting from substance abuse, addiction, life difficulties and crises.
Providing educational advice to parents (parent consultations, family consultations).

Learning training, psychotherapy. If necessary, medication is included in the treatment.

 

What to expect when ordering?

Usually a 1-hour activity for the child. Before or after is often time spent with an accompanying person. 

 

Preparation:

If you decide you want to stop, we can help you get into a drug treatment home.

The aim of our pre-care meetings is to get to know the drug treatment home programme as well as possible.
During your time in pre-screening, you can have the screening tests you need to get in (hepatitis, HIV, lung screening).
By staying in touch, you can confirm your intention to stop.
Abstinence is not a prerequisite for attending pre-care.

 

Day care for addiction patients: 

Official business, assistance with specialist care (health, social), psychological support for addicts and their relatives, job search, respite.

 

If you or a loved one is affected by addiction, contact us for help:

for official business: for example, obtaining documents,
access to appropriate social and health care services: e.g. information on institutions, contacting,
professional support in the form of personal, family, medical, psychological or spiritual counselling,
to find a job: free internet and phone access, information on the services of the Job Centres,
You can get support to develop a healthy lifestyle, refuse drugs, we'll listen if you want to talk,
you can wash your clothes, take a bath,
relax, read and take part in our leisure activities,
you can use our community space for unpretentious entertainment: for example, for birthday parties, get-togethers with friends.
Consultation:
 
If you need individual help, you can also use our consultation service. You'll have an assistant who will work with you individually for 1 hour a week. The sessions take place in a separate room where you can talk openly about your problems and difficulties. Our consultation service is free of charge.Family therapy: the systemic approach sees the family as the source of problems and the unit of therapeutic intervention. The focus of the therapy is on the [highlight]family[/highlight], its [highlight]subsystems[/highlight] and the [highlight]individual[/highlight]'s [highlight]significant [highlight]family relationships[/highlight]. In family relationships, mutuality through communication tries to create changes in the way experiences are experienced and processed, and in behaviour. In family therapy, the symptom or the symptom carrier represents the metaphorical dysfunction of the family as a whole.

 


You can use our daytime catering:
 
anonymously,
voluntarily,
free of charge,
even if you are not clean: our cooperation aims to achieve abstinence, but it is not a condition for care
without a referral, no social security card or ID card required: but it's good to have one - we can help you get one.

 

Community care for people with addiction:

The aim of community care for addicts is to help addicts in care to remain integrated and full members of society and to reintegrate into the community. To this end, we provide care, psychosocial rehabilitation and all forms of counselling in the addict's home environment, where he or she lives. We help people with addiction to improve their health and mental wellbeing; to maintain and develop their existing skills and abilities; to resolve conflicts and problems in their daily lives; to access social and mental care and healthcare. The working method of community care is systemic family care, which builds on the active and responsible participation of the patient, community resources and the involvement of natural supporters. In community care, the task is not only to reach, help and empower the substance abusing (or other addicted) client, but also the family members.

 

Community care provides clients with both access to a complex range of services and differentiated, individualised care.

 

Community care provides the following services:

Problem analysis, problem solving: helping to set personal goals, identifying and strengthening the motivating factors for change, encouraging lifestyle changes, reducing the collateral harms and harmful consequences of substance use and dependence, preventing relapse, providing immediate advice and assistance to those who use the service on an ad hoc basis.
Skills development: organising or facilitating life skills training, improving and maintaining self-care skills, providing information on the disease, how to adapt to it and how to manage it.
Psycho-social rehabilitation: access to work, organised leisure time, leisure and self-help groups, support networks, counselling, information on health, social and child protection benefits and services, employment, education and housing.

 

How to claim the benefit:

Use of the service is voluntary and free of charge. Possible places and ways to contact:

 

in person or by telephone at the place of contact,
through a general practitioner, school doctor or company doctor,
by psychiatrist, psychiatric ward, carer,
mediating primary and specialised social care,
through education and training institutions,
through self-help and civil society organisations,
through family members, neighbours and other voluntary helpers who are in contact with the person concerned.

 

  

Supported housing: 

It helps recovering addicts to develop independent, new ways of living. We provide accommodation in apartments maintained by the EGÉSZSÉGDOKK Public Charitable Foundation for clients who meet the conditions of care.

 

Who can use it?

Our clients who are clean, substance-free and employed are recommended for care through a complex needs assessment process, during which professionals assess their condition and needs.

 

What happens?

They receive weekly individual and group consultations, during which we monitor and support their daily lives. We work together to develop skills and support independent living in response to the individual needs of our clients.

 

Distraction: 

If you have been prosecuted for drug use, you can opt for a preventive education service to avoid a penalty under certain conditions set out in the law; that is, diversion. This is an opportunity to exempt occasional, non-addicted drug users from possible penalties.
 


How to apply?
Contact us by phone or in person. For the first time, bring the paperwork you received from the court, authority or guardian with you. In addition, you need a preliminary assessment: a certificate that you are not dependent. We can help you find out where to get it. Once we have these documents, we will conclude an agreement with you, which will start your diversion.
 

How is diversion done?

We meet individually and in groups for one to one and a half hours. The sessions are led by a member of our staff and explore a specific topic through free discussion, self-awareness exercises and creative workshops.
 

How long will the programme last?

The minimum duration of the diversion is 6 months, for a total of 12 sessions. We usually meet every two weeks, but it's important that you don't go more than 30 days between two visits, because then your diversion is interrupted and you have to start the programme all over again. 
 

How can you prove that you are taking part in the diversion?

After the first session, you will receive 3 copies of an official certificate of the start of the diversion, which you will send to the competent authorities. At the end of the process, after 12 sessions, you will also receive 3 certificates of completion of the programme: you will need to submit these to the authorities to close the case against you.

 

Groups: 

We support self-help groups and creative activities to help people overcome addiction, maintain abstinence and help their loved ones.

Narcotic Anonymous (anonymous substance abusers)
Alcoholics Anonymous (Alcoholics Anonymous)
Sobriety group
Self-awareness and personality development groups
Getting ready for the holidays together: Christmas, carnival, Easter - follow us on Facebook for the latest events!

 


Prevention, health education in schools: 

One in five school-age young people have used some form of drugs in their lifetime, and drug users are increasingly using synthetic drugs of untraceable composition.Between 1995 and 2003, the proportion of schoolchildren who tried drugs quadrupled, and after a small decline starting in 2007, it started to increase again significantly from 2011 (KSH, 2015).

This is why we think prevention is very important. We organise health education sessions with our staff to prevent drug use in schools as part of a classroom teacher's lesson.

We provide training and information for teachers and professionals.

 

School community service: 

Join us as a volunteer! If you would like to complete the 50 hours of volunteer service in a place where:

where you can really help,
where you can work in good company,
where you can get to know yourself better.

 


Programmes:

You are cordially invited to an open discussion with Gábor Gönczi, the professional leader of EGÉSZSÉGDOKK.
