Since 1954, Brighton Hospital has been on the cutting edge of drug and alcohol rehab care. Our rehab doctors and nursing staff are committed to providing high-quality care using a compassionate and patient-centered approach. Each Brighton rehab doctor is known to be an expert in chemical dependency and rehabilitation, and provides care in assessment, hospital treatment, consultation and outpatient follow-up. Our rehab nursing and counseling staff round out our expert team of rehabilitation professionals and provide comprehensive, addiction friendly rehab care to all of our patients.

What some of our referring rehabilitation doctors say about Brighton:

Julian Kutinsky, DO, a doctor of internal medicine and an addition medicine specialist practicing in Sterling Heights, MI has helped hundreds of individuals free themselves from drug and alcohol dependency.  A doctor on staff and a frequent lecturer at Brighton Hospital, he also refers many of his patients to Brighton from his private practice and from St. John Oakland Hospital, where he is the medical director of addiction medicine.  "I have the first hand knowledge of the terrific job Brighton does in starting the people I admit there on the road to recovery," he says.

Michael L. Fox, DO, a fellow in the American Society of Addiction Medicine says "I try to match patients with the right facility for his or her needs.  I worry that too many people are still in search of a quick fix for this chronic and lifelong disease.  While I maintain clinical relationships with more than one chemical dependency program, I know that many individuals derive strong benefits from a highly structured program such as Brighton's where the 12 step roots run deep"

Brighton Hospital's clinical team of rehabilitation doctors and nursing care is unsurpassed in the nation.  An associate of our rehab nursing staff and a vital member of the Brighton family for 34 years, Jacque Fuller, RN, was recently awarded the Success in Nursing award from St. John Health, the parent organization to Brighton Hospital.  In a proclamation from St. John Health, Fuller was recognized as a "lifetime learner committed to the advancement of the profession of nursing and to sharing her knowledge with others."  The proclamation also included recognition of her "patience, gentleness and composure: her commitment to serving others; and for being a beacon of hope for some of the most vulnerable people in our community."   Brighton provides a dynamic learning environment for its entire addiction friendly staff, including fellowships, advanced nursing degrees, and continuing education.  We strive to remain an education center of excellence for rehab care.

Brighton Hospital is the second oldest drug and alcohol rehab care center in the country. We are preferred by those who seek a caring and compassionate doctor and professional staff for their drug and alcohol rehabilitation.  Many of our rehab referrals come from the Metro Detroit, Ann Arbor, Lansing, and Grand Rapids areas of Michigan (MI).  Yet, we often serve individuals, other physicians and hospitals seeking an addiction-friendly MD from other cities throughout the Midwest as well.
