Services are available to special categories of offenders. High turnover of professionals and scarce skills (psychologists, nurses, pharmacists, pharmacist assistants, medical practitioners, psychiatrists, dieticians and environmental health practitioners). The target for sentenced offenders participating in psychological services could not be reached due to the resignation of 12 psychologists in 2007/08 Lack of adequate capacity in some of the provinces in the Department of Health to provide assistance and support to Correctional Services e.g. the admission of multi-drug resistant (MDR) and extremely drug resistant (X-DR) tuberculosis, psychiatric and dental offender patients, as well as some aspects of secondary and tertiary levels of care.

Computer Based Training forms an integral part of the subject Life Orientation within the National Curriculum Statement for grades 10 – 12 as well as the National Curriculum Vocation. DCS has embarked on this national project to ensure that presentation of the curricula within DCS is aligned with national requirements. The Department of Correctional Services entered into a partnership with the Shuttleworth Foundation during 2006 with the aim of establishing a pilot ICT Skills Programme at two identified correctional centres, Malmesbury and Pollsmoor, respectively – The Open Source Learning Centre Programme. The pilot project concluded in 2007 with a 100% pass rate. The two mentioned centres were the 1st Open ICDL centres world-wide in a Correctional Centre. The ICDL Foundation, Ireland has recognized the Minister of Correctional Services and the Department of Correctional Services as a world finalist for an innovation award for the implementation of the Open ICDL programme. This achievement was also commended by Parliament and received accolades from the Portfolio Committee on Corrections. The Department of Correctional Services was involved in the Internal ‘Second Chances’ conference hosted by The President’s Awards for Youth Empowerment. The aim of the conference was to share best practice, knowledge and first hand experience with colleagues from Correctional Facilities internationally. Correctional Services South Africa was used as an example since DCS is one of the first countries internationally that has implemented the President’s Awards programme (under the Internal Awards) with success within a correctional environment.
