Indlas Shantivan is established with the sole purpose of providing a wide range of psycho-social rehabilitation services for patients suffering from various psychiatric illnesses and substance use disorders (drug addiction). Psychiatric illnesses often have a long convalescence period making the prolonged stay at multi- speciality hospital unaffordable. Increasing burden of psychiatric illnesses including addiction problems in community at an alarming rate coupled with patients" reluctance for prolonged hospitalization, high cost of treatment made us realize that the Bio-Psycho-social model of health cannot be practiced at hospitals. Lack of infrastructure and well trained paramedical staff poses another significant problem in management of such chronic diseases. Currently, there is severe deficit of rehabilitation centers providing all the necessary facilities for such patients under one roof. Thus the idea of Shantivan was born. keeping this in mind, we endeavored to build a welcoming set-up, a home away from home, with independent infrastructure to help patients attain remission, stay stable, prevent future institutionalization and be functional members of the society and achieve a better quality of life.
