REPORT OF THE SPECIAL RAPPORTEUR ON THE RIGHT OF EVERYONE TO THE ENJOYMENT OF THE HIGHEST ATTAINABLE STANDARD OF PHYSICAL AND MENTAL HEALTH ON HIS VISIT TO CROATIA :NOTE / BY THE SECRETARIAT
Specific areas are regulated in other acts, including the Patients’ Rights Protection
Act, the Medical Practice Act, the Pharmacy Act, the Nursing Act and the Dental Care Act;
the Midwifery Act; the Physical Therapy Activities Act, and the Act on the Health Care
Technical Services. (...) This shows the lack of an
effective “gatekeeping” policy in the health-care sector and, above all, the urgent need for
coordination between the social welfare and health sectors.
54. The capacity in psychiatric institutions continues to escalate, as shown by the
increasing number of psychiatric beds32 and the increasing amount of financial resources
directed at enhancing hospital infrastructure, a situation that was observed by the Special
Rapporteur in his visit to a psychiatric hospital in Zagreb which was in the process of
expanding, with the construction of a new building for forensic patients.
55. (...) European Union structural funds should be directed at building up a modern rights-
compliant system throughout Croatia, with services that prevent referrals both to
psychiatric hospitals and to large residential institutions.

REPORT OF THE SPECIAL RAPPORTEUR ON THE RIGHTS OF PERSONS WITH DISABILITIES ON HER VISIT TO PARAGUAY : NOTE / BY THE SECRETARIAT
During her visit, the Special Rapporteur went to Asunción Psychiatric Hospital, the
Nueva Paz foster home for persons with psychosocial disabilities and the Albino Luis
shelter for boys and girls with disabilities located in Asunción. (...) The foster
homes initiative should be revived as a transitional support measure to promote a return to
community living for persons with disabilities who have been institutionalized in the
psychiatric hospital in Asunción. However, the initiative should be improved and extended
throughout the country, guaranteeing a rights-based approach, reducing the number of
persons per home and ensuring a full range of support services for independent living in the
community. (...) During the visit to the psychiatric hospital in Asunción, th

REPORT OF THE SPECIAL RAPPORTEUR ON TORTURE AND OTHER CRUEL, INHUMAN OR DEGRADING TREATMENT OR PUNISHMENT, MANFRED NOWAK
He thanks the Government
for the additional information received and welcomes that the Ministry of Health recognized that
the treatment, which consists almost exclusively of the use of strong neuroleptics (developed
long time ago), was inadequate and indicated that psychiatric care would be individualized, new
treatments developed (ergo therapy, psychotherapy, music therapy, occupational therapy), and
modern drugs purchased once the necessary funds were made available.
44. The Special Rapporteur received allegations that psychiatric clinics are sometimes used as
places of detention (see appendix: Bălţi Prison, Comrat police detention facility). (...) Whereas the Special Rapporteur was unable to visit a psychiatric facility in the
Transnistrian region of the Republic of Moldova, he has received allegations of detention in
psychiatric clinics as a means to pressurize persons to comply.

REPORT OF THE SPECIAL RAPPORTEUR ON THE RIGHT OF EVERYONE TO THE ENJOYMENT OF THE HIGHEST ATTAINABLE STANDARD OF PHYSICAL AND MENTAL HEALTH ON HIS VISIT TO PARAGUAY : NOTE / BY THE SECRETARIAT
He also visited the Psychiatric Hospital in Asunción, a prison
and one educational detention centre for adolescents in Ciudad del Este.
4. (...) Paraguay has a history of mental health services closely linked and limited to
assisting users of mental health services, including persons with disabilities, through
institutionalization in the only public psychiatric hospital in the country, the Psychiatric
Hospital in Asunción.
95. Paraguay does not have a specific legal framework to protect and promote the rights
of users of mental health services and those with mental health conditions and disabilities in
terms of their admission to psychiatric institutions. Neither the Constitution nor disability-
related laws or national regulations include due process guarantees for the admission into
psychiatric institutions or provisions for periodic reviews of involuntary institutionalization.

REPORT OF THE SPECIAL RAPPORTEUR ON VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN, ITS CAUSES AND CONSEQUENCES, RASHIDA MANJOO :ADDENDUM
Access to sufficient psychiatric
services and specialists was also problematic, due to the remote location of the detention
facility. (...) It is estimated that around 10,000 persons with disabilities live in either psychiatric
hospitals and social care institutions, isolated from their families and away from public
view and scrutiny. (...) She spends her time doing “work therapy” (knitting) and receives some allowance for
this work.
