40. The main reasons for children being admitted to residential care are difficult
financial conditions and the death of a parent;
Almost all institutions are geared towards upkeep rather than rehabilitation or
social adaptation;
At the local level institutions have a trend to accumulate up to 400 children.
The research showed that in local-level institutions children are admitted
usually based on applications, without the participation of FCSDs and
CCAs, and by referral from various structures;
3,286 children who go home at weekends and in the holidays could
potentially be reintegrated into their family environments;
Case management services are only provided in 29 institutions, and even here
they are narrow and do not fully meet the children’s needs for a family
environment;
Growth has been noted in the number of private residential institutions: they
admit children under their own criteria, often groundlessly and artificially
depriving children of their family environments; they have no links with the
state, and there is no supervision of the children’s fate from the state; and
they do not have standardised norms and standards (on nutrition, welfare;
education, health and development).
41. Introduce a moratorium on the opening of both new residential state institutions with
large capacity, and private orphanage-type children’s institutions;
For the existing private institutions, create a monitoring and supervision system for the
activities in the best interests of the child
Create new and/or restructure existing state services so that they are better oriented
towards providing a family environment for children without parental supervision. For
example, introduce a system of foster families, and create daycare departments at
institutions, family and child support centres, as well as other forms of alternative
adaptation services for children
Recommend that FCSDs and territorial social protection departments ensure access to
services to families and children living in difficult circumstances in their own areas, with
the aim of ensuring the child remains in familiar surroundings, preventing further
psychological trauma and preserving child-parent relationships;
Expand child protection services in every district for the psychosocial rehabilitation of
children in residential care, including additional educational services to meet their
interests;
Introduce multiple sustainable models to prevent children being deprived of parental
care;
Develop the professional skills essential for care and rehabilitation of children in
institutional care;
Resolve the issue of taking educational services out of the institutions, in the best
interests of the integration and adaptation of children in institutional care into society
Resolve the issue of receiving a quality education at the child’s place of residence, as one
of the reasons for children ending up in institutions is lack of access to education.
