Addiction Care, Close to Home

Personalized, comprehensive treatment plans for adults and teens

We understand that addiction, also known as substance use disorder, is not a lack of self-control or an unwillingness to quit using a particular substance. It is a serious medical condition that involves ongoing, repeated use of alcohol, opioids, or other drugs. It affects people from all walks of life, from every background from across metro Detroit and throughout Michigan.

Addiction can cause problems at home, work, school, and in relationships. It also can lead to lasting health problems, including organ damage, disability or even death if left untreated.

Two of the most common types of addictions we treat are:

• Alcohol addiction
• Opioid addiction, including fentanyl

No one should face the challenges of addiction alone. Our team of addiction providers will work with you and your loved ones to develop a personalized, effective treatment plan. Your treatment plan and level of care are based on evidence gathered during the assessment phase and the latest scientific research in addiction.

Our comprehensive addiction assessment and diagnosis

The first step in treating addiction is a thorough assessment. We have to understand the root cause and where you are in the treatment process. For example, have you just realized you have a problem, or have you stopped using and are dealing with withdrawal symptoms? Do you have an underlying mental health condition that led to your substance abuse?

Once we’ve completed our assessment, we can diagnose and recommend the right type and level of care based on your unique needs. Learn more about addiction assessment.

After your assessment, our addiction team will recommend one of three levels of treatment:

• Outpatient treatment
• Intensive Outpatient Program
• Residential (inpatient) addiction treatment

Treatment plans may include detoxification (also known as detox) and medication-assisted treatment, depending on your needs. Learn more about our addiction treatment options.

Specialized care

Our programs are designed around the unique needs of each patient. We are experienced in treating addiction in teens and in women, including during pregnancy.

We also have specialized programs for professionals whose struggle with addiction impacts their job, such as healthcare workers, lawyers and those in transportation fields.

Ongoing education and support for our patients and their families

Addiction care is a continuous process that involves help from loved ones and a variety of support systems. Patients and loved ones whose lives have been touched by addiction can access our wide range of education resources. We also recommend that you and your family members take part in 12-step programs offered by organizations in our community for additional support.

Cost of treatment

Henry Ford Health accepts most major commercial health plans. We will check with your health plan and let you know what treatment is covered, as well as any costs for which you may be responsible, such as coinsurance, copays or deductibles. Because coverage varies, we recommend that you contact your health plan with specific questions about your benefits. Private pay options are also available.
