Description

Background: Inmates with illicit drug use have experienced various
problems that affect their Quality of Life (QoL). The social rehabilitation
program is expected to improve their QoL. Studies investigating the impact
of social rehabilitation programs on QoL of inmates with drug abuse are
limited.
Purpose: This study aims to describe the differences in the QoL of inmates
with illicit drug use at the 0, 3rd, and 6th months of the program and to know
the program’s effectiveness in three Indonesian prisons.
Methods: This study used a secondary data analysis of comparison study
with pre-post program intervention for inmates with illicit drugs in Indonesian
Prisons by analyzing inmates’ QoL. The instrument used the World Health
Organization Quality of Life-BREF (WHOQOL-BREF). This study consists
of documents from 400 male and 92 female inmates with illicit drug use who
fully participate in social rehabilitation programs in three prisons. Data were
analyzed by measuring the frequency and mean of QoL in the 0, 3rd, and
6th months using the One-Way Anova and the Kruskal Wallis to evaluate the
program’s effect on the QoL.
Results: The average QoL in physical, psychological, social relationship,
and environment domains increased from the 0, to 3rd, and 6th months
of the program. The rehabilitation program was effective in improving QoL
(p<0.001) in Prisons A and C, but it was found no significant effect on QoL
in Prison B (p=0.069).
Conclusion: The rehabilitation program was potentially effective in improving
the QoL of inmates with illicit drug use. It is important for related parties to
further evaluate the supporting and inhibiting factors that affect the QoL in
the social rehabilitation program and overcome these inhibiting factors.
