         <description><![CDATA[<div>i believe many staff in the centre never received much training before getting into the job because of the lack of service that e=was delivered to the detainees ,However some of the staff they were fully trained and knew the right things to which is evident that there wasn't a ridiculous amount of cases they showed lack of training within the staff.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>there was a report from one of the women in the centre , concerning SEXUAL CONTACT from a staff member.This is a lack of management in the centre and supervision if they had an equal amount of staff and detainees.<br><br> Many women reported experience of previous abuse and domestic violence and were likely to feel particularly vulnerable as a result. We specifically investigated views on sexual contact or comments. In our confidential survey, four women reported instances of sexually inappropriate comments from staff, one women reported sexual contact from staff, and one women reported comments, contact and abuse. In our interviews, nobody reported any direct experience of sexually inappropriate behaviour in the centre, but three women were aware of an incident where an officer had made a woman pregnant in the past</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>in the report it states that some times where there wasn't enough staff some of the detainees had to take over and help the staff.This is wrong in a certain way because they should be the ones receiving care not giving it out. However the management team should also had recruited more staff to cover the whole.Fare enough to some extent it was good that some of the women where in the kitchen making food which this was a source of activity for them to help them from distress or feeling down sometimes. However with the survey that was done for detainees that considered themselves disabled they where asked about the medication intake many said they weren't receiving any medication to help their condition which the management should done something about it and considers the individuals health.this was the accountability of the centre and weren't taking responsibility of they're action that were wrong.Also that how the protest that the public and the friends and family of the individual in the centre they were not happy with hoe long they were bring detained and not being given a reason of the arrest and being kept there.Some of these people had children that still needed to be in education and need their parents.</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>-indication of sexually inappropriate behaviour by staff and in our interviews no detainees gave details of current concerns. Self-harm was high. The quality of care for those at risk of self-harm was reasonable, but some ACDTs2 were opened without evidence of self-harm risk.&nbsp;<br>-A large number of pregnant women had been held with little or no recorded evidence of the exceptional circumstances justifying their detention<br>Health care screening was sometimes carried out by a male nurse, who asked women personal and, in some cases, inappropriate questions.<br>more detainees than at the previous inspection said they felt unsafe (42% against 29%).</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Safeguarding procedures were underdeveloped. Security was generally proportionate. Separation was not used excessively but some detainees had spent too long in temporary confinement. Force was usually proportionate, but in one incident a member of staff had used excessive force and was subsequently suspended. Some detainees were held for long periods with insufficient case progress. </div>]]></description>
