The Bentinck

About The Bentinck

The Bentinck is a private drug and alcohol rehabilitation programme operated by Arrow Health, a family-founded Australian treatment provider shaped by personal experience of addiction. Its residential service supports men and women who need time away from everyday triggers to stabilise, build recovery skills and begin making sustainable changes. Treatment follows a therapeutic community structure and draws on the Minnesota Model, combining peer connection, professional guidance and personal responsibility. Programmes are abstinence-based and individualised, with group therapy, cognitive behavioural therapy, psychoeducation and relapse-prevention work forming important parts of the clinical schedule. Alongside structured treatment, residents can take part in yoga, music therapy, hiking and swimming. Access to gardens, nature and comfortable outdoor areas helps create a restorative atmosphere where clients can reflect, practise healthy routines and reconnect with their physical wellbeing. The Bentinck also recognises that addiction affects partners, parents and other loved ones. Family education and support are available through Arrow Health, while continuing-care planning can provide counselling, recovery meetings and relapse-prevention support following residential treatment. The listed Armadale address serves as an Arrow Health contact point, with current official information placing the residential programme in Victoria's peaceful Macedon Ranges.
