Brighton Hospital Fact Sheet
Brighton Hospital was founded more than 50 years ago on visionary Harry Henderson’s belief that alcoholism is a treatable disease. When Harry opened the doors of his gracious country-home style treatment center nestled in a serene setting, he set a high standard for treatment. Brighton Hospital continues to be a standard bearer and innovator in chemical dependency treatment based on the medical moedle and 12-step program participation. We now know that addiction to any other drug, including heroin, marijuana, crack/cocaine, prescription drugs and methamphetamine also can be treated when people find help and hope. People with a chemical dependency and their families find both at Brighton – a fully licensed and accredited acute care hospital.
