Brighton Hospital, serving the Metro Detroit and surrounding areas of Michigan, is a national leader in addiction treatment training for drug and alcohol treatment specialists. We are expanding the understanding of addiction treatment through fellowships for medical students, advanced education degrees for nurses, and specialized addiction training rotations for social workers. Brighton Hospital fellowships offer specialized education and training covering the disease of drug and alcohol addiction.

The fellowship in addiction medicine was launched in 2006 to provide medical education and training in addiction treatment. Fellows receive education in all levels of drug and alcohol treatment, including outpatient, detoxification, rehabilitation and consultation. Nursing, medical and social work students perform training rotations at our hospital each month, expanding the understanding and knowledge of addiction.

Brighton Hospital is a potential intern placement source for social work students who may or may not have addiction treatment as their ultimate goal, but benefit strongly from the drug and alcohol treatment education and training they receive.

Brighton provides a dynamic learning and training environment for medical and social workers. Our continuing education programs in drug and alcohol treatment assure the clinical excellence that's at the very heart of Brighton's vision.
