Training Centre for the Sector of Justice (CPJ). The prison population can still attend the General Directorate’s own programs aimed at sex offenders. Medical assistance is provided through outsourcing, with presence in prison in three hours per week, spread over three days each week.

Dental consultations are held on the premises of the Faro prison facility, every two weeks. Psychiatric consultations are carried out by the Technical Team of Specialized Treatment of Integrated Response Centre of Olhão. For cases of tuberculosis or when it is being given methadone, inmates have to go to the Olhão Health Centre. Moreover, Prison Hospital or Faro Hospital can be addressed. Finally, a visit was made to the prison area, having been covered the accommodation spaces on sectors of A and B and common areas. They were seen ordinary cells, the disciplinary cells and dormitories and other spaces, such as reading room, library, gym, barber shop, patio, living room, and bar. The kitchen and the dining room were also visited. The conditions of existing facilities are amazingly adequate, in terms of painting, cleaning and hygiene. The property appears to have regular restoration and conservation works, which makes the space nice and very clean. Also because of this, the environment in prison seemed quiet, although disciplined. The impression caused by the prison facility was indeed positive. On the whole, the state of the installations is pleasant and the general atmosphere seemed calm and harmonious. Certainly the facilities contribute to that fact, but the main factor will probably be the degree of occupation of prisoners, both at school and professional level. • Visit no. 37-2015 Date: 2015.11.24 Location: Esquadra de Olhão da Polícia de Segurança Pública [Police Station of Olhão] (Faro) Subject: Detention conditions.
