New Addiction Treatment Centre is Being Established in New Aswan

The city of New Aswan will soon establish its first addiction treatment centre as part of a joint effort between Aswan University and the Fund for Combating and Treating Addiction at the Ministry of Social Solidarity.

The Addiction Treatment Center in New Aswan will feature state-of-the-art medical equipment and will have a capacity of 90 beds. It will also include facilities like a sports field, training workshops for patients, a lecture hall, a theatre, and a lounge for medical staff. The new centre is expected to provide free treatment services to individuals from the South Upper Egypt governorates.

This centre marks a significant addition to Aswan's healthcare infrastructure, as the governorate currently lacks its own addiction treatment centre, forcing patients to travel to other governorates to receive treatment.
