The Open Arms Group, an institution specializing in the rehabilitation of drug and alcohol addicts, has reached the milestone of more than 10 thousand attendances over more than a decade of operation in the country. The institution's work is conducted by a multidisciplinary team composed of doctors, psychologists, therapists, and nurses.
The group's recovery clinic adopts a holistic approach in the treatment of patients. The growth in demand for services of this nature follows a global scenario of increased substance use, a topic addressed in the World Drug Report 2026.
The report, published by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC), indicates that 331 million people consumed some drug in 2024, equivalent to 6.2% of the world population aged between 15 and 64. This number represents an increase compared to the 5.2% recorded in 2014.
Given this scenario, understanding how a rehabilitation clinic operates can be useful for families and managers seeking to comprehend the stages and approaches involved in the treatment of drug addicts.
