Recovery Centers of America at Bracebridge Hall

Programs for Professionals and First Responders

Bracebridge Hall offers targeted support through two unique programs: RESCU, for first responders and military service members, and WorkFlex, for working adults who need to remain connected to their jobs. RESCU provides confidential, trauma-informed treatment in a peer community of law enforcement officers, EMTs, and veterans — helping reduce stigma and increase trust in the recovery process. Meanwhile, WorkFlex enables preapproved clients to manage limited work or academic duties during inpatient care, enabling them to seek help without jeopardizing careers or schooling.

Recovery Grounded in Nature

Situated on Maryland’s Eastern Shore, the facility offers a tranquil, wooded environment with nature trails, fishing access, and river views. The setting is calming and grounding, supporting mental clarity and giving patients a break from the stressors of daily life.

Strong Alumni Network and Transitional Support

Bracebridge Hall emphasizes recovery beyond the residential phase. Its alumni programming, transitional sober housing, and peer-led support groups help clients build sustainable lives in recovery. Former patients often credit these resources with helping them maintain sobriety after discharge, citing the sense of belonging and structure they provide.

Comprehensive and Flexible Care Options

Bracebridge Hall offers full-spectrum care for substance use and co-occurring mental health disorders. This care includes detox, residential treatment, and medications for addiction treatment such as methadone, buprenorphine, and naltrexone. Clients can continue treatment via telehealth post-discharge, and those already prescribed medications for opioid or alcohol use can continue their care at Bracebridge.

Trusted, Compassionate Staff

Patients consistently praise the staff at Bracebridge Hall for its compassion, professionalism, and responsiveness. Many mention individual counselors, nurses, and sober living staff by name — pointing to a treatment culture that values empathy and individualized care. While a few reviewers reported challenges during admission, the overall sentiment of reviews is one of gratitude for sustained recovery.
