Popis: Aim To identify and specify the structure and the elements of a quality framework for addiction treatment programs. Method Concept mapping strategy was applied. In brainstorm sessions, 70 statements were generated and rated by 90 representatives of three stakeholder groups. Using multivariate statistical analyses, the statements were positioned on a map. Results Two dimensions ʻBest Practiceʼ and ʻPerformanceʼ and nine clusters were identified. The three most important clusters were ʻAttitude of staffʼ, ʻClient orientationʼ and ʻTreatment practiceʼ. The most important statement was effectiveness. Conclusion The specific quality framework identified has some similarity with existing non-specific frameworks.
