The Kirkbride Center offers behavioral health services in a residential setting in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. They offer detox, care for addiction and co-occurring disorders, and treatment for trauma survivors. They have a total of 302 beds to serve clients.
Healing in an Urban Campus in the University City neighborhood
The Kirkbride Center is on 17 gorgeous acres that feature abundant green space with courtyards, mature trees, gardens, and tranquil lawns. The campus includes the historic Kirkbride Building, which has a spot on the National Register of Historic Places.
The campus is easily accessible by public transportation. The Market Street elevated train stop at 46th Street is two blocks from the site. The SEPTA bus system stops at several places by the facility.
With its calm and verdant setting, I believe this campus is a healing place to choose as a site for your recovery. They have methadone maintenance and Suboxone treatment to detox off drugs.
Treatment in Philadelphia without Financial Hardship
The Kirkbride Center accepts insurance providers such as CoventryCares, Keystone First, and United HealthCare Community Plan. If you don’t have insurance, they’ll accept Behavioral Health Special Initiative. Plus, they’ll happily create personal payment plan arrangements for you. I appreciate that they offer options so that people can access their service regardless of personal private health coverage.
Philly also has unofficial sites for healing such as greenspaces and other local features. Parks like Lucien Blackwell Park provide places for you to unwind and stretch your legs. Clearing your head can be a good start to recovery.
Recovery for Life Begins at The Kirkbride Center
One of the most striking features of The Kirkbride Center is the way they work to create a plan for life after discharge for each patient. They draw from the expertise of a multidisciplinary team, proven assessment tools, and the input of each patient to make this plan.
I like that the plan includes community resources to make sure you have the highest odds for ongoing recovery.
Inpatient Detox at Market Street and 48th Street
Their medically monitored detoxification program gives each client the needed medical supervision and medication to minimize discomfort and risk of complications. You’ll carefully wean off substances to reduce your withdrawal symptoms.
Their detox program has 21 beds available and gives these clients access to the same excellent resources and programs offered to the residential clients. In fact, many detox graduates choose to step down to their onsite residential program as their next recovery step.
