| Abstract | ||
| This study aimed at assessing the quality of social and institutional care provided to orphans, especially adolescents Studies indicate the importance of social care in the education of young people, especially within orphanages Which affects the future of society as a whole, , So I thought that I would provide a pilot assessment that could be of help to researchers, caregivers and decision-makers in order to provide better services and to address the problems of adolescent orphans in social welfare institutions. The research sample was divided into two categories: • 30 cases of caregivers • 150 cases of orphaned adolescents living in orphanages, divided into 50 male adolescents and 50 adolescent girls. The researchers used the descriptive approach using a regular random sample. The researchers used a questionnaire to measure and evaluate the quality of services provided to adolescent orphans based on the four areas of quality of social welfare institutions (environment, infrastructure, equipment, integrated care, child protection, effective management) Results: The results of the study of the workers confirmed that there are negative results in the field of integrated care and its negative reflection and severe deficiencies in subsequent care programs. The results of the study also revealed to the children interviewed in the study that the children are not qualified to leave the institution and leave safe for subsequent care. It was found that the standards applied to these institutions did not include sufficient indicators for subsequent care programs and mechanisms, As well as inadequate rehabilitation and poor training of staff to deal with these young people at this critical stage The main Recommendations:The results of the research show that there is a severe shortage in the plans of rehabilitation and aftercare. It is necessary to develop a policy of aftercare and a system that applies to all social care homes for social integration so as not to negatively affect the behavior of children From the inability to rely on self and engage in society | ||
