“All over the world, people with mental illness are subject to poor-quality care and violations of their human rights. Our government and mental health services fail to integrate evidence-based treatment and practices, resulting in poor recovery outcomes”, said Professor Luh Ketut Suryani as she start to smile after seeing the miracle result of the institute work at Gianyar regency. “We can not just rely on government and hospital for mental health treatment. It is critical to assess and improve quality and the observance of human rights in order to change this situation”, add Dr Cokorda Bagus Jaya Lesmana after reviewing the assessment of the institute for their patient in community.
