Gujarat has approved plans to set up de-addiction centres in each of its district hospitals, covering all 34 districts, according to reports from both outlets. The state government states that the centres are intended to provide a range of services related to substance use disorders. These services include scientific detoxification, de-addiction therapy, and mental health care. In addition, the centres are set to offer family counselling as part of the support system for patients. Rehabilitation services are also included in the proposed scope, aiming to support recovery beyond the initial treatment phase. While both sources describe the same coverage across all district hospitals, they do not provide details on timelines for commissioning, staffing levels, or budgets in the excerpts provided. Overall, the announcements indicate a move to make de-addiction treatment and related psychosocial support more widely available through the existing district hospital network.
