Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT)

Ashok One Hospital provides comprehensive psychiatry and counseling services, including medical management and psychotherapy. However, Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT), which is sometimes used for treatment-resistant depression, severe psychosis, or bipolar disorder, is not performed at this facility. ECT requires specialized anesthesia support, monitoring equipment, and dedicated infrastructure for patient safety. Instead, patients requiring ECT are guided and referred to accredited mental health institutes where the therapy can be delivered under proper supervision. The hospital continues to offer strong follow-up, medication management, and counseling support to ensure holistic mental health care.
