Types of Addiction Treatment
Brighton Hospital’s highly effective addiction treatment programs include input from several addiction experts including physicians, nurses, chemical dependency counselors and recovery case managers. Each patient’s progress is monitored regularly by our addiction treatment team, and involves counseling, disease education and medication.
We offer drug treatment for addiction to a wide range of substances as well as alcohol. We also understand that many people suffer from addiction to two or more substances simultaneously – dual addiction or dual diagnosis. Our knowledgeable staff are trained and experienced at handling these complex addictions. We also address other behaviours that may complicate addiction recovery, such as compulsive gambling, eating disorders, codependency and compulsive sexual behaviors.
The type of substance abuse treatment a patient receives depends upon many factors, including the specific substance, the amount and frequency of use, prior addiction treatment history and motivation to change. All levels of care prepare patients to return to their previous environment with new skills to help maintain sobriety, prevent relapse and continue recovery.
