drug rehab in nepal

Architecture is about creating a space and making it lively for a suitable purpose. Architecture thus has a purpose. A building conveys various impacts and effects to its habitat. Residential building creates a homely environment for living but the same building may not create the same environment for the treatment purpose. Each building has its meaning and its particular function. From the safety point of view also this point is highly deliberated. Linking the case of Nepal most of the rehabs ongoing in Nepal are converted from the residential buildings. It thus carries the huge default. The spaces which were supposed to bring a psychological impact upon the treatment is just an adjusted space.
In Nepal, initially subjects with drug dependence were treated in the police custody with short-term interim measures but drug addiction need cure not the punishment. Also there are limited numbers of rehabs in Nepal but the number of drug addicts has been rapidly increasing. This seeks the need of admittance of more proper effective rehabilitation centers.
There is no question that Nepal is a male dominated country. The position of women in the society is not satisfactory. Due the improvement of education system this matter doesn’t even seems like a problem but the condition is worst in the rural areas.  The victim of drug is not always a man. Various female addicts can be found in our society but due to the male dominating nature, most of the rehabilitation centers in Nepal admit only male patients.
Man is a social animal. He was born in a society, he lives in a society and eventually dies in a society. With the addiction the drug user may forget the society but they need the support of the society after the treatment because it is the place where they belong. It is hard for the society to accept the social criminal with same respect as the saying goes “once a thief always a thief”. Hence rehabilitation centers should also be able to provide skills and trainings which will be fruitful for the society so that they can accept them without any hesitations.
Thus for creating an overall sound and perfect rehabilitation center which is not just a compromise of space but a creation of space which bring a radical psychological change helping in the improvement of the physical health as well as the mental state so that they could return to the society gaining some knowledge and life withstanding skills, both for male and female, a drug rehabilitation center is required.
