National regulations on the operation of the Police emergency centres for children do not mention the obligation to conduct psychological and medical examination of each newly arrived juvenile. There are no regular visits of a doctor or a nurse, stipulated in the recommendations of CPT. The right to medical care is realised by calling an ambulance, if the state of health of a juvenile raises any doubts. In the majority of visited facilities, there ia a doctor's room, equipped in a firstaid kit, a couch, a lavabo, a desk and a wardrobe. Only in the Police Emergency Centre in Gdansk, there is no such room and the examination is conducted in the bedroom. In the Police Emergency Centre in Rzeszów there were out-of-date drugs in the first-aid kit. National Preventive Mechanism recommended an ongoing control of drugs in the facilities. In the Police Emergency Centre in Gdańsk, the NPM representatives recorded there was no mention on the time of a doctor examination in the book of medical consultations, whereas in the Police Emergency Centre in Gdańsk in Bielsko- Biała the name of patient was missing. In the above-mentioned cases, NPM recommended to focus on the accuracy of medical documentation. The facilities undertook activities aiming at elimination of any irregularities. National Preventive Mechanism recommends to ensure that all new arrivals are medically screened without delay. Medical services should take place in properly prepared rooms and should be documented. Moreover, with regard to stress resulting from detention a juvenile should be under proper psychological supervision. e) Living conditions Recommendation of the Committee of Ministers CM/Rec(2008)11 on the European Rules for juvenile offenders subject to sanctions or measures.
