Because of the expertise and commitment that Christine Weber has shown as part of the drug and alcohol treatment program staff, we are mending lives. Our multidisciplinary team of drug and alcohol treatment program specialists know that chemical dependency is a disease – not a weakness. We pledge to treat every patient with compassion, dignity and clinical excellence, because this is how you deserve to be treated. We know this because many of our drug and alcohol treatment program experts are also in recovery, or are adult children of alcoholics. Approximately one-half of Brighton’s employees came to us first for admission into our drug and alcohol treatment program, before joining our staff.
Every Brighton Hospital treatment program associate receives annual service excellence training. This is reflected by patient satisfaction scores exceeding 90 percent. Plus, having established America’s first Fellowship in Addiction Medicine in a clinical setting, we lead the nation in the medical education programs for drug and alcohol treatment specialists. In addition, we help expand the understanding and knowledge of drug and alcohol treatment through regular rotations of nursing, medical and social work students. These are some of our unique advantages in guiding our patients to recovery. Welcome to hope. Welcome to the renowned program at Brighton Hospital.
