Child and youth welfare facilities The situation becomes particularly critical for the unaccompanied minor refugees if the owner and operator associations have to file for insolvency as a result of the closures. In this case, the employment contracts of the staff working in the shared accommodation are terminated by the liquidator, the internal facility documentation destroyed and the shared accommodation vacated from one day to the next. An orderly takeover is thus not possible. In Tyrol, Commission 1 ascertained unacceptable deficits in two shared accommodations that had been caused by the insolvency of a major operator. The owner and operator associations that took over the shared accommodations found facilities with no staff but fully occupied with adolescents. The living areas were in a state of serious neglect because no investments had been made for a long time due to the pending insolvency. It took several months until the operation could be run with a full team and under acceptable hygienic conditions. Intolerable conditions at the time of takeover XX  The unequal treatment of unaccompanied minor refugees compared with other minors must be stopped. XX  Specialised accommodation forms with the appropriate care and crisis intervention must be provided for unaccompanied minor refugees and young adults with special needs. XX  New owners and operators must be supported when taking over shared accommodation in order to rectify deficits as quickly as possible. 2.3.12 Positive observations The adolescents in a facility in Vorarlberg were very positive about the care they received. Commission 1 also had a good impression. One positive aspect of the care concept was the inclusion of time-out trips in order to prevent the breaking of relationships if it is not possible for the adolescent to be taken care of in another shared accommodation at that time. The NPM has been requesting the introduction of such a model for years, as it avoids the breakup of relationships when adolescents move to a different facility. Time-out trips to prevent relationships from breaking Overall, the highly flexible way in which crisis situations are handled in Vorarlberg deserves praise. There is a family crisis service with an on-call duty in the night and at weekends that places children and adolescents in a crisis residential group if required. Adolescents who should not be accommodated in shared accommodation for different reasons are offered a place in semiresidential care. Care and upbringing are not transferred to the facility in this case. The goal is to bring these adolescents back into care. Family crisis service and semi-residential care 86
