Samarpan Becomes India’s First and Only CARF-Accredited Residential Rehabilitation Center

Mumbai, 15th May 2025: Samarpan, India’s premier residential rehabilitation center is proud to announce that it has received a Three-Year Accreditation from the Commission on Accreditation of Rehabilitation Facilities (CARF) International for its Residential Program for Substance Use Disorders/Addictions (Adults). With this recognition, Samarpan becomes the first and only residential program in India and the second in entire Asia to earn this globally respected accreditation.

What makes this achievement especially significant is that Samarpan has reached this milestone in just three years since its inception, an extraordinary feat in an industry where CARF accreditation typically takes much longer to secure. The Three-Year Accreditation is CARF’s highest level of recognition and is only awarded to programs that demonstrate full conformance to over 1,500 rigorous international standards related to quality, safety, and outcomes.

Located in a serene, private estate near Pune, Samarpan is India’s premier residential rehabilitation center for adults dealing with substance use, addiction, and co-occurring mental health disorders. The center offers evidence-based, individualized care in a discreet, world-class facility that blends the comforts of a boutique retreat with the clinical sophistication of a global treatment provider. Samarpan’s model combines compassion, privacy, and professionalism, making it a preferred choice for discerning clients in India and abroad.

“Obtaining this accreditation places Samarpan among a global league of elite treatment providers,” said Martin Peters, Chief Operating Officer. “It reflects our unwavering commitment to clinical and ethical excellence and provides assurance to those seeking or referring to our services that we operate at internationally recognized standards. We’ve been working toward this since Samarpan’s inception. While this is a milestone, it also marks the beginning of continuous improvement.”

The accreditation journey has strengthened systems across the organization and reaffirmed Samarpan’s dedication to client outcomes and global best practices. The team now looks ahead to pursuing CARF accreditation for its growing Outpatient Services, powered by an expanding team of credentialed clinicians.

Obi Unaka, Chief Clinical Officer, added: “This achievement is a testament to the dedication, compassion, and professionalism of our entire team. We thank our staff, clients, and stakeholders who made this possible. Together, we are raising the bar for behavioral health and recovery in India.”

CARF International is a globally recognized accreditor for health and human services, including behavioral health, rehabilitation, and addiction treatment. Their endorsement is considered the gold standard in the field and reflects an organization’s commitment to continuous quality improvement.
