At Self Foundation, Baranagar, we provide treatment mainly for drug addicts and alcoholics. We also take care of people with mild psychiatric problems and along with that we have come up with a special care unit for children of different ages.
Detoxification Service
Detoxification is the base of recovery process of an addict or alcoholic. This period may vary from 3 to 4 weeks time depending on the status of health of an addictive person.
It includes proper diet and medication to start with and also slight exercises and physical training is also required to fix the physical crisis of a person. We dedicatedly follow diet chart during detoxification prescribed by doctors which may vary from person to person, depending on the nature of addiction.
Overall we cover a proper way of detoxification before going to the next level of recovery. Necessary clinical support is provided throughout the detoxification stage.
In house Treatment
The recovery process is mainly done in-house with proper supervision done by our staff and volunteers.
We carry the treatment mainly through sessions like, motivational classes, discussions about the steps of recovery. Even writing daily inventory is an important part to identify ones problems and character defects.
We also talk about a proper interactive routine of life that can bring change to a person for long term use making him a better person in life which is ultimately accepted by the family.
Our recovering brothers also visit our centre to share their real life stories in order to give hope and strength to the addicts who are still under treatment.
Counselling Service
Regular counselling is an important part to open up an addicts’ mind in order to face reality.
There are two types of counselling. One is personal counselling and the other one is for family. This is done to develop and understanding of the situation for and addict and his family for their betterment. The entire process is methodical.
Once the mind is opened up about what actions you can take to recover from this disease then only one can decide about taking proper steps to come over it. This goes on for lifetime.
After Care
Aftercare involves developing a plan to help a patient make the transition from psychotherapeutic treatment to life after treatment. Aftercare offers support for challenges patients face once they return to their daily lives after therapy.
Care in counselling refers to a compassionate and empathetic approach where counsellors support and understand clients. It involves active listening, validation of experiences, and respect for the client’s individuality.
An aftercare plan may consist of one or more of the following types of support, such as: Finding supportive arrangements, such as sober living facilities. Attending self-help meetings. Establishing a support network.
Aftercare is one of the most important elements of substance use recovery because it provides ongoing support and guidance after completing a treatment program. It helps individuals maintain sobriety, prevent relapse, and navigate the challenges of daily life without turning to substances.
On top of this, being caring helps us to strengthen our relationships and develop meaningful emotional connections with others. When we allow ourselves to show care to those around us, we are truly allowing ourselves to live happier,more complete lives.
