![Page 8: Deinstitutionalization and developing Community Based services International overview Zsolt Bugarszki, PhD](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082821/5697bfe81a28abf838cb6178/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
The first wave of Deinstitutionalization
• Sweden 1993 – group of group homes, segregated disability blocks• The Netherlands – parallel system• Hungary – planning 150 beds new institutions in 2009• Romania – modernising and renovating existing large institutions• Slovakia – investing 200 million euros into large institutions

UN Monitoring committee’s Concluding Observations
“The Committee is concerned that across the European Union persons with disabilities, especially persons with intellectual and/or psychosocial disabilities still live in institutions rather than in local communities. It further notes that in spite of changes in regulations, in different Member States the ESI Funds continue being used for maintenance of residential institutions rather than for development of support services for persons with disabilities in local communities.”

The second wave of Deinstitutionalization
New attitude of the European Commission for the 2014-20 period:
• Structural Funds regulations include an explicit reference to the transition from institutional care to community living
• Only those actions that help to establish the conditions for independent living should be supported by the EU. Any measure contributing to further institutionalisation of disabled people or the elderly should not be supported by ESI Funds.

The second wave of Deinstitutionalization
• New strategy for Deinstitutionalization in Slovakia and Hungary• National Plan in Czech Republic for the period of 2015-20• Relevant reduce of hospital beds and institution beds in the Netherlands• Second turn of deinstitutionalization in Sweden

Developing community based services
Shared responsibilities• Centralization (Hungary) vs. decentralization (Czech Republic, Netherlands,
Sweden)• Local stakeholders vs. large service providers• Regulation, protocolization vs. flexible and responsive services• PR and communication of Deinstitutionalization
![Page 13: Deinstitutionalization and developing Community Based services International overview Zsolt Bugarszki, PhD](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082821/5697bfe81a28abf838cb6178/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Developing community based services
Service provision• Strong evidences about the effectiveness of community based services
(UK, Sweden, Netherlands) • But community services are not cheaper alternatives to
hospital/institution based solutions• Community resources, community participation vs. traditional welfare
solutions• Local responsibility – local flexibility

Level of social expenditures
![Page 15: Deinstitutionalization and developing Community Based services International overview Zsolt Bugarszki, PhD](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082821/5697bfe81a28abf838cb6178/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Developing community based services
Financial structure
• Sustainable local governments
• Co-finance system (health vs social services, centralized vs. local services)
• Tailored balance, instead of schematic solutions
• Well targeted direct payment and personal budgeting schemes
![Page 16: Deinstitutionalization and developing Community Based services International overview Zsolt Bugarszki, PhD](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022082821/5697bfe81a28abf838cb6178/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Developing community based services
Employment
• Strong tradition of sheltered workplaces (Hungary, Romania, Czech Republic)
• Promising tendencies to emphasise more integral solutions (supported employment, social enterprises, vocational rehabilitation, job coaching)
• Estonian employment policies belong to this second group but there are uncertainties around Work Ability reform and incentives, programs for companies are far from ideal.

Developing community based services
User involvement
• Sweden – co-determination. Users have strong influence on the support and services they receive
• UK – Recovery orientation, user led services, peer support workers• Netherlands – strong emphasis on community resources (eestvedaja)• Person centred vs. service centred solutions • Supported decisions making, personal budgeting, user involvement
