TREATMENT SERVICE
THE SERVICE
The Salvation Army operates the Eastern Bridge alcohol and other drug service, also published as SalvoCare Eastern The Bridge Programme, at The Basin in Melbourne's outer east. It provides residential rehabilitation for people over eighteen affected by substance misuse, generally over a sixteen-week stay. Residents have their own bedroom in shared four-bedroom units. The program uses structured group work and one-on-one case management, and has a gym, recreation spaces and a chapel onsite.
Published as not offered here: outpatient / day program.
Ask the admissions team how withdrawal would be handled and how a transfer into treatment works.
CARE & DAILY LIFE
Ask about staff qualifications, medication policy, accessibility and any specific support needs before you decide. Almost no service in this directory publishes what it will and will not admit.
COST
We hold what this service publishes, and we do not put a price at the top of a profile for the public to sort on. The cheapest service on a page is rarely the right one for a particular person, and a quote that comes with the conversation about what is included is worth more than a band. Professional referrers see the figures in their workspace.
State funded
AFTER THE STAY
Details of ongoing support are not published here. Ask the service what support is available when your treatment ends.
PROFESSIONAL ENDORSEMENTS
Endorsements come from registered professionals — psychologists, addiction GPs, lawyers, social workers — who have referred someone here and put their name to what happened. None yet does not mean poor ones: it means nobody has written one.
