Institutionalising Values and Norms at the Rehabilitation Centre of the National Anti-Narcotics Agency

The National Anti-Narcotics Agency (BNN) Baddoka Rehabilitation Centre sees the planting of values and norms as being significantly more effective when adjusted to the needs of each client. Through the BNN Baddoka Rehabilitation Centre, which was appointed as the object of the research material, the researchers want to determine the process of institutionalising values and norms for clients at the centre. The researchers interviewed clients and managers of the BNN Baddoka Rehabilitation Centre, as well as other parties related to the Rehabilitation Centre, such as internal and external stakeholders, and distributed questionnaires to six rehabilitation centre clients regarding how changes occurred before and after the client was in the rehabilitation centre. The results showed that there had been a significant change in behaviour since the client was in the rehabilitation centre. In the rehabilitation centre, the application of values and norms was carried out by means of an initial examination of the client. This test is useful to determine to what extent an addictive substance is able to affect the client. If it is known, the rehabilitation centre will arrange any programs according to the client’s needs.
