The Lowell General Hospital Bridge Clinic is a community resource for people 18 years of age and older who are struggling with addiction to substances and are ready for treatment. This program offers rapid assessment for treatment in a welcoming and supportive environment staffed by a clinical team specializing in substance use disorders. Our clinic serves as a “transitional bridge” to longer-term treatment that fits each patient’s self-identified path for sustained recovery. We believe in removing barriers that prevent patients from accessing immediate treatment and meeting them where they are, with a compassionate and non-judgmental approach.
