1. BACKGROUND

The residential treatment concept has its foundation in the halfway house program originally developed
for men returning from prison to the outside world . Residence in the halfway house, as its name
implies, was an intermediate stage between prison and freedom, during which the ex-convict could
readjust to normal responsibilities, look for a job, and resume an independent life, all within the security
of the house . It was a temporary situation providing bed, board, advice, and company. From the
halfway house the newly freed man was expected to begin an independent, constructivelife .

The basic attribute of the halfway house was that it provided independence within a framework of
emotional and financial security . The house was used for adults as well as juvenile ex-offenders.
Perhaps the most famous house for adolescents is the Highfields House, established in New Jersey in
1948 . Highfields was the model for virtually all the initial juvenile halfway houses . The concept has
spread widely because of its humane approach and its recorded successes, until presently the residential
treatment concept is being used for narcotics treatment, youth offenders, probation cases, and social
service shelters .

Unlike the original halfway house, which was a way station between prison and the outside, the
residential treatment centers presently are operated for ex-offenders as well as for those with no
criminal conviction who are referred to the program . The efficacy of this approach is considered to lie in
the residential, as opposed to the institutional, character of the facility-maximum size is usually between
25 and 30--and in the treatment of residents rather than their punishment or neglect .

2.SETTING:

2.1 SCOPE AND LIMITATION

In philippines, there are different areas that capable of handling various rehabilitation facilities.these
facilities are all over our country.although we can see them in different locations, problem and failure
won,’t go away.issues like lacked of facilities, project/ program that won’t fit the user and also
connection between each the falities to filling their evey holes.

To limit the scope of study, the following will serve as the boundaries and basis to prove the project
feasibility.
2.1a USER

TABLE 1

Base on the table above almost 40,000 number of inmates were under the agency of bjmp, district city
and municipal jails and 25, 000 approximately were under the agency of buearu of correction (bucor) as
0f 2002 source:bjmp and bucor

TABLE 2

Above the figure shows the profile of the jail population in tha philippines according to bjmp and bucor
as of 2002.

Bjmp has legal jurisdiction over 41,594 inmates (bjmp,2002).the majority of inmates, numbering 37,697
persons, are classified as detainees and only 3,897 are convicted to prison terms.as a result 91% of total
population of inmates were detained and 9% were sentenced.
 TABLE 3

As can we see in table 2 there is a problem jail population the abundance of inmates between the
pecentage of detained is quite to improper.because here is the problem in table 3 we can see the length
if time from arrest to last hearing of case, april 2003.

The estimated length of time that inmates in city jails within the ncr spent from the date of last hearing
is minimun of 5 days to maximum of 8 years.this leads to an average percent of inmates in this type of
jail waited for more that 1 year until the last hearing made.

But we can see that almost 25 percent of the total percentage of prisoners in city jail wihtin the ncr has
a length of time of 6 month to 1 year until the last hearing.the problem is in our local jurisdiction.
 TABLE 4

According to the table 4, 26.6 % of the total total crime commited in city jail within the ncr were
commited drug/shabu user/pusher etc. As of april 2003.so that we imply that our rehabilitation should
more focus on creating programs that will help the user to change their life.
 TABLE 5

As of july 2002 source: bjmp, the caloocan city jail ranked 2 in ncr jails popilation and congestion rate
that has a number of inmates of 1,399 but the capacity of it is 560.over 139 % congestion rate is stated.

Implication: caloocan is one of the best suitable site for our proposed rehabilitation facilty
2.1B DESIGN

BIOCENTRISM
Biocentrism builds upon the ideas of quantum physics. While physics is considered essential to the study
of the universe and chemistry essential to the study of life, biocentrism puts biology before all other
sciences in order to develop a theory of everything – a theory of the universe.

When describing this theory, Robert Lanza explains that what we call space and time are forms of animal
sense perception rather than external physical objects. Understanding this simple yet revolutionary idea
provides us with new ways to answer some of the major puzzles of mainstream science. Biocentrism
offers a new way of understanding everything from the microworld to the forces, constants, and laws
that shape our entire universe.

2.1C RESULTED ARCHITECTURE /BUILDING

The study resulted architectural components as per designed to different user’s activity.the resulted
architectural elements ,the center shall have at least 400 square meters (for 30 patients) for the
following: (1) administrative office/director’s office (with secured storage files), (2) area for outdoor
activity, (3) emergency clinic – must be located near the area where the center personnel are on duty,
(4) living quarters, separate rooms for male and female, (5) multipurpose area/recreational area.

the totality of the five major component project will serve as entities fulfilling the holes of each
rehabilitation within the proposed area location.

2.2 ASSUMPTIONS

All of the collected datas and information about the jails and rehabilitation facilities of the country.it will
serve as a solid fact and ideas to support the lackness of our rehabilitation facility.

For the purpose of this study, the following basis will set the standard in deriving conclusion as to which
the project can be drawn.

2.2A ORIGIN OF THE PROPOSAL

One of the most controversial and polemical news in these past years is about the war on drugs that
impel by our president rodrigo duterte.he pushes our national authority to supress all of posibble crime
including drugs.in because of that many drug users and drug pushers were captured and forced to shut-
in different jails.as the war on drugs went well, in contrast of that our national and city jails become
over populated.many prisoners were freed but in a few weeks most of them were be back again in jail
by doing again their bad habits.there for we can say that they always continuing bad things because of
lack of facilities and treatment in our jails.

The proposed project will serves as the motherboard of the all rehabilitation facility in specific location.it
will center the project and program of each facility.correcting the failure of other rehabilitation and
support each facility in order to give the best comportable and reliable rehabilitation center.providing
the most suitable program for all the users.
2.2B SPACE PROGRAMMING AS TO USER’S DEMOGRAPHICS

2.2C SITE OVERVIEW

Site Overview:

The site is in surrounded by residential community and easy access from the other rehabilitation facility.
The site was defined as residential and industrial community sitting on the map of Brgy. 175 Caloocan
city. The location is fit to the project because Caloocan is the highest rate of drug abuser base on the
survey.

The following are some factors to consider in both location and site selection of livelihood and
Educational rehabilitation center.

1. Accessibility – the site is in the center of the community and the support facility is also
nearby the site. Most of the drug abuser that needs to be in a program didn’t feel that they
are different to the others because they have easy access to the community.

2. Labor and Supply- the location is at the center of the community that’s why they can easily
market the product that they made in livelihood and also easy access to the supply of
materials needed.

3. Safety and Security- the site is surrounded by the support security facilities like police
station and fire station, these facilities help to the management to maintain the security and
safety of the patients.

4. High numbers of drug offenders – The Caloocan has the highest number of Drug offenders
that’s why the rehabilitation and jail facilities become over crowded.

The above cited site selection criteria are considered in choosing the best suitable lands in building a
community base rehabilitation facility.
Since the development has the most number of drug offenders it can also help to produce man power if
the program is successful, the more the rehab patient finished the program the more man power it can
produce.

According to the book entitled, “Manual of Operations for Drug abuse treatment and rehabilitation
centers” there are (9) factors that affect the rehabilitation facilities.

a. The size of the facility must be adequate for the intended use the building shall be well-
ventilated and spacious for occupants to be relatively comfortable to allow privacy for the medical
treatment area, counseling and group activities. The land area must whenever possible have enough
space for sports and recreation and learning activities.

b. The building should meet construction and safety standards, as well fire regulation and health
and sanitation requirements.

c. Bathroom and toilets – There shall be at least one bathroom, one toilet, and one lavatory is in
good working conditions for every eight (8) patients. The bathroom and toilets shall not be provided
with locks except those for the exclusive use of administrative staff.

d. Kitchen shall be clean at all times and shall be equipped with adequate basic cooking utensils
and food storage and with provision to secure/locks all sharp objects.

e. Dining area shall be clean, well-lighted, protected from insects and vermin’s, cheerfully
decorated and shall be provided with chairs and tables.

f. For residential facilities with bedrooms, the requirements are:

1. The bed shall be placed at least 100 cm. or one (1) meter apart. 2. If a double-decked bed is
utilized, this shall have at least one-meter space from the ceiling and again between the upper and
lower beds. 3. The bedroom shall be clean and orderly at all times.

g. Emergency clinic shall accommodate patients who are physically sick. It must be well-secured,
spacious enough for at least two patients and with provision for their personal hygiene and excretory
functions. It must be visibly accessible for those who are on duty.

h. Adequate water supply and electricity must be available to the extent possible; there must be
telephone and other means for outside communication. It shall be adequate in volume and pressure.
Likewise, safe and potable water shall be available at all times.
 i. There shall be a contingency plan in case of accidents and emergencies following the
guidelines stipulated in DOH Administrative Order No. 2004 – 0168 known as “National Policy on Health
Emergencies and Disasters”.

2.3 SITE DESCRIPTION

The entire concept of community-based residential treatment hinges on the location of the facility in a
neighbourhood setting similar to that which the resident will return.

The proposed multi-training and educational rehabilitation centre is to be sited at Zabarte road,
Barangay 175, Caloocan, Metro Manila. The approximately 58 hectares of a vacant property, which is
good for relaxation of minds and healing due to its surroundings.

The site is situated for being accessible to the community, near access to school, jobs, recreation and
proximity to transportation.

2.4 SIGNIFICANCE OF THE STUDY

The project of making an “Educational and livelihood rehabilitation center” is not only to reduce the
drug user and the crime rate, but also to help the unemployed to find their passion that can be a source
of their income.

The study is also being an avenue to tackle the importance of labor, manpower and personality
development.

The study will be beneficial to the below listed groups of individual and sectors.

1. Educational – base on the research most of the drug offenders are youth, most of them are
out of school youth and they think they lose hope for a better future. The educational
program can help them to renew the hope to achieve their dreams.

2. Livelihood – most of the drug rehab patient want to change, but it is hard for them to avoid
drugs because they don’t have permanent work.

3. Health- The less drug user the less the crime and death rate.

4. Family- They also learn to give importance to their family.
