Description
The Health Professional Recovery Program is a program that is administrated through Michigan LARA. It assists healthcare professionals who have substance use disorders or mental disorders with seeking recovery and treatment in a confidential and non-disciplinary process. The goal of the program is to support the recovery of participants so that they can safely practice again, before their impairment harms a patient or damages their careers.
Michigan Health Council does not administer all of the programs in this database. Please see the "organizations involved" above to learn who you should contact for more information.
