sufficient to work in a sanitary regime but if at least one person had been infected, then they would not have been sufficient, and that they would not have conditions for proper isolation. The NMPT noted a similar problem at the JEC in Łańcut. Since the announcement of the pandemic until the second half of April 2020 it was not possible to buy any personal protection equipment (face masks, gloves, disinfectant) due to their shortages. Every day, the director contacted the manager and employees of the voivodeship (i.e. regional) Crisis Management Centre in Rzeszów about the supply of disinfectants. Unfortunately, all the funds received by that centre from the Material Reserves Agency were allocated to the covid-assigned hospital in Łańcut. At the turn of April and May 2020, personal protection equipment and disinfectants appeared on the market but their prices were very high (several times higher than before the pandemic). The juveniles from the centre took part in the "Masks for Łańcut" campaign, making parts of the masks. As a result, the centre employees and juveniles later received masks made by the campaign volunteers. In May and June 2020, the schools operating in the centre received two non-contact disinfectant dispensers, about 60 packages of disinfectant and 500 masks from the Ministry of Health. In April 2020, the management of the facility decided to purchase SARS-CoV-2 rapid tests detecting antibodies (300 tests were purchased starting from March 2020). In August 2020, the facility received one non-contact thermometer from the Podkarpackie Voivodeship Office in Rzeszów. The situation improved in June when the facility joined the EU project "Cooperation Leaders" under the 2014–2020 Knowledge, Education, Development Operational Programme financed by the European Social Fund. The funds were spent on two ozone generator, disinfecting cloths, face masks, gloves, disinfectant liquids, thermometers, protective overalls, disposable bedding and contactless liquid dispensers. The director of the JEC in Renice emphasized that from the very beginning of the pandemic he received support from external institutions, and the centre was provided with all the resources necessary to maintain appropriate sanitary conditions. He appreciated the cooperation with the centre’s governing authority and the fact that in every situation he could count on help and quick reaction of the Myślibórz country government. All directors of the JECs agreed that at the time of the visit the amounts of disinfectants and other protective measures were sufficient and that there were no problems with their regular purchase. In all the visited establishments there were dispensers with hand disinfectant. Juveniles did not get the liquid to be kept in their rooms but they had access to it in many places, including at the entrance to the centre, in the schools, in the corridors and in the common rooms. During the pandemic there was no obligation to wear face masks or gloves inside the JEC buildings for their residents; this applied to both educators and juveniles. Masks had to be put on by the staff when visiting a juvenile who was in post-arrival isolation or during contacts with people from 114
