When a family decides that a loved one needs a nasha mukti kendra in Nagpur, the next questions are practical ones: How does admission work? How long will treatment take? What will it cost? This guide answers these questions honestly so you can plan the next step with confidence.
Step 1: The first phone call
Most admissions start with a simple call. A counsellor asks about the substance (alcohol, ganja, MD, brown sugar, tablets), how long it has been used, the daily amount, any past treatment and current health problems. This takes 10–15 minutes and is completely confidential. At Vyakti Nirman you can call +91 79724 35258 or send an enquiry.
Step 2: Assessment at the centre
On the day of admission the patient is assessed by the medical team: blood pressure, pulse, sugar, liver and general health, and a psychological assessment. This decides whether the patient needs a medically supervised detox first and whether any mental health condition such as depression or anxiety also needs psychiatric care.
Step 3: Documents and things to bring
- ID proof of the patient and of one family member (Aadhaar or any government ID)
- Old prescriptions and medical reports, if any
- Comfortable clothes for 2–3 weeks, toiletries and slippers
- Any regular medicines the patient takes, with the prescription
Valuables, cash and phones are usually kept with the family or deposited at the office. The full checklist is on our admission process page.
How long does treatment take?
There is no single answer, because every person is different. As a general guide:
- Detox: about 7–14 days, depending on the substance and the amount used
- Rehabilitation: counselling, group therapy, yoga and routine-building, usually for several weeks
- Total stay: most programmes run 30–90 days
Short stays often end in relapse because the body is clean but the habits and triggers are untouched. Read more about each stage in our treatment process.
What decides the fees?
Fees at any vyasan mukti kendra depend on a few clear factors:
- Length of stay (monthly packages are common)
- How much medical care the detox needs
- Whether psychiatric medicines or extra tests are required
- Type of accommodation
Be careful with any centre that quotes a price without first assessing the patient, or that promises a “guaranteed cure” in a few days. Call us for an exact estimate after a short assessment.
What families can do
Recovery is much stronger when the family takes part. We run family counselling sessions so that parents, spouses and children learn how to support recovery at home and how to respond to cravings or relapse warning signs.
