Article 114: Medical, psychological examination and relevant placement in facilities

1A child, immediately after admission with the prison or detention facility must be examined by a doctor, in order to identify and record any marks/information or previous maltreatment or any physical or mental harm requiring medical care. The doctor, after examining the child, shall prepare a report describing the fact whether or not the marks/information are found in relation to the child, maltreatment or injury as described above.

2Every child must be interviewed not later than 24 hours from the moment of admission, by a psychologist or social worker and a psychological and social report must be prepared to identify and describe any factors related to the type and level of care and programme needed for the treatment of the child.

3The reports mentioned in paragraph 1 and 2 of this article shall be submitted to the head of the Institution of Execution of Criminal Sentences for children in order to establish the most appropriate placement of the child within the premises and the type and level of care and programme to be followed. When special treatment and rehabilitation is necessary and the duration of stay in the premises allows, the staff trained for this purpose shall prepare an individual treatment plan indicating the objectives and the period, the means, stages and steps to be taken to deal with those objectives.
