Developed by leaders in the fields of health, law and corrections, NCCHC's nationally recognized Standards lay the foundation for constitutionally acceptable health services systems and can help juvenile detention and confinement facilities to improve health services delivery. The Standards address nine general areas: health care services and support, patient care and treatment, special needs and services, governance and administration, personnel and training, safety, health records, health promotion and medical-legal issues. The manual provides clear compliance indicators that define expected outcomes and aid in self-assessment, guidelines for facilities of various sizes and best practices recommendations. Glossary and index.

The long-awaited, much-anticipated third edition of Standards for Health Services in Correctional Institutions is now available. The third edition of this book defines the scope of services that are necessary to provide adequate care, basing these standards upon principles of public health and constitutional standards developed through litigation. Previous editions of this book have been extraordinarily influential in this field. The book has been cited as the standard for jail and prison health services in state and federal court decisions. The new edition includes significant changes including expansion of both the mental health section and children and adolescents section. This important book contains rigorously prepared community standards, reflecting a health environment to which any community, but particularly a jail or prison community, is entitled. It sets standards of health care that are respectful of prisoner patients and require prison and jail based health care workers to view themselves as independent health care workers first and foremost. The new edition of this book is easy to use and has the most comprehensive and inclusive set of standards for health services in correctional institutions. It is an essential reference for anyone working or teaching in any capacity in the field of corrections.

Each person confined in jails, prisons, and juvenile detention facilities must be afforded unimpeded access to needed health care. Such persons, without risk of interference or fear of reprisal, should be able to alert health care staff of a medical need, obtain a timely professional evaluation of that need, and receive treatment in the manner prescribed by a competent provider. Simply stated, no correctional officer should ever prevent, impede, or inhibit anyone from alerting a health care provider of a perceived need for health services, even though the officer may believe the request is trivial, fictitious, or undeserved. This book focuses on access to health care services by special populations in correctional institutions (women, youths, elderly, persons with dementia, and the terminally ill), which includes important information on privatization in corrections. The following topics are featured: the context, principles, balance and implications of correctional health care, including the recent detention of immigrants in the United States; the unimpeded access to care, enhancements, stress reductions, health literacy, culture, ethnicity, religion, intake health screening, medical clearance for transfer or release, medications and clinical appointments, emergency care services, special settings, copayments, and budgeting for health care services; privatization, contracts, evaluating bids, monitoring the contract, and minimizing adverse risks; special health concerns of incarcerated women, communicable disease, pregnancy-related concerns, aging, frailty, osteoporosis, mental health, cosmetic concerns, health education and job assignments; youth in corrections, hygiene, exercise, gender-specific needs of young women, informed consent, supervision of vulnerable youth, substance abuse treatment, and the community connection; special health needs and humane care and alternative care of the aging; the prevalence, person-centered care, elements of care, environment, restraints, visits, and the ethics of incarcerating persons with dementia. The book concludes with end-of-life care in prison, hospice, palliative care, and compassionate release. It will serve as an invaluable tool for correctional officers, health care providers, justice and legal professionals, social workers, mental health professionals, and counselors.

These standards represent the requirements for corrections-based opioid treatment programs seeking accreditation from NCCHC. In developing these standards, NCCHC used federal regulations and community standards as a guide and modified them to take into account the issues unique to providing services in a correctional facility.

This book brings together the principles and practices of health care for incarcerated populations. It references national standards and legal precedents and cites recognized experts and authorities. It describes serious mistakes that have occurred and discusses strategies for the future. The chapters in this book focus on four specific branches of health care services: mental health, infectious disease, dentistry, and addiction rehabilitation. To deliver effective health care in corrections, including prisons, jails, and juvenile facilities, the directors of these facilities and the health care staff need to understand not only the clinical aspects of their patients but their special needs. Those funding or planning for these programs must consider the needs of those special groups who are incarcerated. They include: members of often-underserved groups, including women, the elderly, minorities, and juveniles. Additional ways these groups and others in the prison environment are underserved include in their treatment for infectious diseases, dental health issues, and mental health, as well as for substance abuse problems. The author who has practical hands-on experience with correctional health care suggests what types of environments lead to positive outcomes and offers concrete and often cost-effective suggestions. One of the surprising suggestions is to encourage exercise programs as a cost-effective method to provide increased good health and to keep the peace. This book reflects the experience of a seasoned administrator, writer, and accreditation specialist in the field of correctional health care. It will prove to be invaluable to correctional officers, health care providers, justice and legal professionals, social workers, mental health care professionals, and counselors.
