Sentinel House Men's Recovery House

About this Recovery House

Sentinel House is a men's recovery residence in Bristol, Pennsylvania, in Bucks County, on Penn Street in the borough's historic core.

A Men's Recovery Residence on Penn Street

Sentinel House serves adult men on Penn Street, in Bristol Borough's oldest section near the Delaware River waterfront, one of the earliest settled areas in Bucks County.

What Pennsylvania Recovery House Licensure Establishes

Pennsylvania licenses recovery houses through the Department of Drug and Alcohol Programs under Act 59 of 2017, and the standard is voluntary. A licensed house has agreed to state health and safety review and inspection, which gives a family or referring provider a record to check that an unlicensed rooming arrangement cannot offer. Sentinel House carries that license.

A Third Recovery House in Bristol Borough

Bristol is home to more than one licensed recovery house, and Sentinel House's position on Penn Street places it inside the borough's compact downtown, distinct from the residential blocks where other Bristol recovery houses sit.

Lower Bucks County Recovery Housing

Bristol Borough anchors the southern tip of Bucks County along the Delaware River, and its proximity to Philadelphia gives residents access to a wider job market and treatment network than a house deeper in the county would offer.
