As it was mentioned in the Parliamentary Reports of the past years, despite establishments nos. 18, and 19 being medical establishments, prisoners are placed in various units of these establishments for long periods. Accordingly, it is important to implement certain rehabilitation activities in these establishments too. The Public Defender pointed out in his Parliamentary Report of 2015 that while both establishments made steps towards the implementation of rehabilitation activities, it was necessary to offer prisoners more and diverse programmes. In 2016, the prisoners in establishment no. 18 participated in psycho-social rehabilitation course offered by the social worker and psychologist of the establishment on the following topics: strategies to overcome suicidal impulse, development of skills for coping with emotion and stress (13 beneficiaries); and art therapy course (four convicts in a group) and movie show. The prisoners of establishment no. 19 were able to learn icon carving and wood carving (3 convicts) and participated in art therapy course (16 convicts).
