Nada’s progressive rehab strategy: friendlier, more compassionate approach to drug addiction recovery

New programmes aim to make rehabilitation more humane, enjoyable, successful, moving away from traditional regimented methods

KUALA LUMPUR – The National Anti-Drug Agency (Nada) has taken a new approach to treating and rehabilitating drug addicts who participate in its programmes.

According to Sg Besi Drug Rehabilitation Centre director Nurshuhaila Ab Rahman, the previous Nada programme was “regimented” and difficult for trainees to follow.

She said the new approach is more humane, fun, and effective, focusing on nine components that meet the trainees’ psychological, emotional, and behavioural needs.

“Helping drug addicts means changing their lives so that they can function normally in society rather than just stopping them from taking drugs,” she told a press conference at the centre here.

Nurshuhaila said Nada also ensures that trainees interact with the community to prevent them from feeling isolated.

Nada also equips recovering addicts with skills to prepare for their return to society, she added.

She also stated that Nada has good relationships with some employers willing to hire former drug addicts.

This will ensure former drug addicts have jobs that will provide them with a steady income when they are back in society, she added. – September 21, 2023
