For a year, Ivo has carried out increased supervision of the Sis homes where young girls are cared for.
More lock-ups in isolation rooms, illegal restraints and two cases where personnel being investigated for sex crimes are allowed to work with children and young people are some of the shortcomings that have been found.
Minister of Social Services Camilla Waltersson Grönvall (M) reacted strongly to the Ivo report and emphasizes that the newly appointed government appointed an investigation with the intention of changing the mandate of the National Board of Institutions.
Janna Törneman, UN agency Unicef's child rights advisor, also commented on the Ivo report.
- That the bad conditions continue shows that there has not been the development and improvement that we have hoped for for many years, she tells TT.
"Needs more resources"
Its director general, Elisabet Åbjörnsson Hollmark, tells SVT that the authority has made decisions to improve care at youth homes.
Among other things, all new employees will receive a nine-week basic training.
Sis also wants to reduce the group sizes in the homes.
- But here we need more resources to continue that development work.
In 2024, we will have 80 new accommodation rooms ready, she says.
