The upcoming second phase will add a specialized detoxification department. This new addition will provide twenty-five more beds for recovering patients.

The Path to Complete Recovery

Experts run helpful behavior modification and relapse prevention programs daily. They also provide essential vocational and social rehabilitation training.

These efforts help patients safely reintegrate into normal society. North Al Batinah Governor Mohammed bin Sulaiman Al Kindi also attended today.
