"I was in and out of recovery for 25 years. I stayed sober for two
years before it escalated again. My husband said he'd stay with me on the
condition that I enter an inpatient program. The staff at Brighton
Hospital helped me with my self esteem. With their help, I realized that
I'm not a bad person and don't need to feel ashamed."
"My depression is now under control, which is something I struggled
with for years. The staff adjusted my meds and I don't have urges now.
Before my treatment I was very isolated. Now I'm able to reach out to
people more often for help when I need it. My family also got a lot out of
the counseling. The other night over dinner my nine-year-old said 'it's so
peaceful at home now, mom.' I wish I had entered Brighton Hospital for
treatment a long time ago. Today I'm looking at never drinking again, one
day at a time."
Alcohol addiction rehab is difficult to start, but
the rewards for successful treatment are so many. At Brighton's alcohol
rehab center, your recovery is guided and monitored by a staff of licensed
and expertly trained counselors and therapists some of whom, are themselves, in alcohol addiction recovery.
They have "real" experience in what it takes to conquer this. Kay's
addiction rehab success story is just one many achieved that at our center
over the years. Our typical treatment program involves individualized
therapy, attending morning meditation and evening educational sessions and
on-campus 12-step programs. Patients also have access to Brighton's
intensive outpatient alcohol rehab center program and services that were
available to them as inpatients. This includes medical care, treatment for
their alcohol addiction, and psychiatric medical review. "What happens to
our patients following inpatient care is a key element in the continuum of
care that sets our program and our facility apart from others in the
country," says Denise Bertin-Epp, President of
Brighton Hospital.
We're the second-oldest alcohol addiction rehabilitation center in the
United States and the first to be licensed in Michigan. One of the leading centers in patient recovery that began in
the early 1950s, pioneering in these specialized alcohol addiction
treatment programs. We maintain a campus setting, with integrated
facilities within walking distance of one another for optimal patient
care. Additionally, we have rehab programs for addictions to: meth,
marijuana, pot, crack, heroin, cocaine, speed, oxycontin, coke, prescription pain pills, ecstasy,
