About the unit

Bridge House is a nine bed inpatient detoxification service located in a beautiful converted oast house, set in tranquil gardens on the outskirts of Maidstone, overlooking the farmlands of the Medway Valley and close to major transports links.

We are a mixed sex unit providing treatment to those aged 18 and above.

Our aim is to provide a safe, comfortable detoxification regime that allows maximum benefit from the psychotherapeutic programme available.

We offer holistic care with a focus on co-production with our clients and a strong emphasis on harm reduction and relapse prevention.

We provide individualised care for everyone requiring inpatient detoxification. We will provide treatment, including the most complex, by thorough, clinically safe services delivered with kindness and respect.

We have a highly qualified, skilled and committed staff group with an excellent track record in terms of client feedback and completed treatment episodes.

Self-funded care

If you would like to fund your own treatment, we can offer a bespoke self-funded treatment programme to suit your needs. The costs of your individual programme depends exclusively on your length of stay and the support and care needed to help you with your journey to recovery.
