Abstract
Institutionalisation of mentally ill patients throughout the history has a plethora of negative connotations attached to it. One most momentous is the feeling of entrapment, compromising autonomy. In Pakistan, models of provision of community psychiatric care are still developing. Institutionalisation is deliberated where mental health professionals are dealing with severe mental health issues. Providing a safe green space for such people is a blessing in disguise which will help in healthier outcome and conceivable healing and rehabilitation. A green outdoor space crafted with empathetic dedication, is one of its kind initiatives taken at Department of Psychiatry, PNS Shifa Hospital, Karachi. We have named this space as Soul Care Terrace. We envision Soul Care Terrace to not only contribute towards recovery, but also to add valuable data through research.
