Abstrakt | In this article on the quality of service in the methadone maintenance programme the authors wished to determine whether the establishment of the network of centres for the prevention and treatment of dependence on illegal drugs was made possible higher quality professional services in carrying out the methadone maintenance programme, greater effectiveness in the programme and greater satisfaction on the part of those involved. According to new directives originating in the Spring of 1995, the Methadone Maintenance Program is operating as one of the services of the eleven Centres for the Prevention and Treatment of Drug Dependency in the Republic of Slovenia. In 1995 the authors collected data on the quality of the programme by using a questionnaire, and they repeated this inquiry in April 1997. The 1995 questionnaire was completed by 267 patients on the maintenance programme (51% of all participants in the programme), and the 1997 questionnaire was answered by 729 patients (71.8% of all participants in the programme). The authors interpreted the results of the survery on the basis of five criteria. | |
