Immediately before release, all detainees in Slagelse were assessed with the object of providing relevant therapeutic offers on the basis of the established therapeutic system. This investigation comprised 24 placements in detention of 20 individuals. The persons who had been placed in detention were mainly young single men with unstable employment histories. 33% were placed in detention in order to protect themselves because they were unable to take care of themselves on account of alcohol intoxication. These should rather have been observed by health staff. 67% were placed in detention because they were committing a breach of the place. It was obvious that there was a great need for supportive measures and treatment of addiction but only two out of 20 desired a therapeutic offer. These two were already in touch with the therapeutic system. Three persons considered that they were in an acute crisis. On the basis of assessment of the personalities of the persons in detention and their lack of motivation to commence a therapeutic programme, it is concluded that the existing therapeutic system could not provide further measures as regards long-term treatment. In this investigation one individual was placed in detention three times. For him detention had the nature of a "social braking function", which must be criticised.
在释放前,西尔克堡的所有被拘留者都接受了评估,目的是根据既定的治疗体系提供相关治疗服务。此次调查涉及20名被拘留者的24次拘留安置情况。被拘留者主要是年轻单身男性,就业经历不稳定。33%的人因酒精中毒无法照顾自己而被拘留以保护自己,这些人本应由医护人员进行观察。67%的人被拘留是因为他们违反了规定。显然,非常需要支持措施和成瘾治疗,但20人中只有两人希望获得治疗服务,而这两人已经与治疗体系有联系。有三人认为自己处于急性危机中。基于对被拘留者性格的评估以及他们缺乏开始治疗项目的动机,得出的结论是,现有的治疗体系无法提供进一步的长期治疗措施。在此次调查中,有一人被拘留了三次。对他来说,拘留具有“社会制动功能”的性质,这一点必须受到批评。
