ABSTRACT
Mental health services in Pakistan were at an elementary level in 1970. The rehabilitation centre situated at 37 Lower Mall, Lahore, Pakistan, is part of the Lahore Mental Health Association and was established in December 1970, by the late Professor Emeritus Dr Muhammad Rashid Chaudhry. The association is registered with the Directorate of Social Welfare, Government of Punjab, Pakistan. This is the biggest and only organisation of its kind in Pakistan that is set up to rehabilitate patients with severe and enduring psychiatric problems.
