Russian term

СПОШ

Russian to English Medical Medical (general) Drug rehabilitation
This is an abbreviation used in the context of opiate overdose prevention, and I just don't get it. The only references to СПОШ on the net seem to be some kind of high (vocational?) schools - like former PTUs, maybe? - which doesn't make much sense. Anyhow, I can't decipher even the school version properly. Средняя профессионально-образовательная школа?

Here's the broader text:

Всего проведено более 5000 консультаций. Консультации осуществлялись, как наркологом, так и на СПОШ, во время аутрич АР и добровольцами проекта ("равный равному").

Any ideas greatly appreciated. Many thanks.

U r welcome =)) Google really rules when you know what to look for =) Yep, I was hesitating whether to choose stationary or fixed locations.
BTW, Google has some hits for - stationary =)
Note from asker:
Oh, but of course, God bless you, man! Only we wouldn't call them stationary. Fixed locations is what they are, but that's perfectly fine, I can take care of the English part. Your points duly coming tomorrow when they let me close. Thanks again.
