  • Nurses leading Care in Custody suite environments: a qualitative study from Scotland.
    Journal of forensic nursing, 2013
    Co-Authors: John Hurley, Paul Linsley, Martin Elvins, Martyn C. Jones
    Abstract:

    This paper outlines the qualitative findings of a recent multimethod study exploring the impact of nurses assuming leadership roles in delivering primary health Care to detainees within police Custody suites in Scotland. The full multimethod study was conducted within a framework of realistic evaluation with key findings indicating that the nurse-led model of service delivery offers positive outcomes for all key stakeholders. Findings from the qualitative component of the study showed that the quality of clinical Care for detainees improved, policing concerns for detainee safety were mitigated, and forensic medical examiners were able to expand their specialist roles. Key supporting mechanisms in achieving these outcomes included generating collaborative practices, enacting clinical leadership, and providing a forensic nursing educational program to empower nurses to generate service provision and grow professional autonomy.

  • Global prison health Care governance and health equity: a critical lack of evidence
    'American Public Health Association', 2020
    Co-Authors: Mcleod, Katherine E., Butler Amanda, Young, Jesse T., Southalan Louise, Borschmann Rohan, Sturup-toft Sunita, Dirkzwager Anja, Dolan Kate, Kofi Acheampong Lawrence, Topp, Stephanie M.
    Abstract:

    The large and growing population of people who experience incarceration makes prison health an essential component of public health and a critical setting for reducing health inequities. People who experience incarceration have a high burden of physical and mental health Care needs and have poor health outcomes. Addressing these health disparities requires effective governance and accountability for prison health Care services, including delivery of quality Care in Custody and effective integration with community health services. Despite the importance of prison health Care governance, little is known about how prison health services are structured and funded or the methods and processes by which they are held accountable. A number of national and subnational jurisdictions have moved prison health Care services under their ministry of health, in alignment with recommendations by the World Health Organization and the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime. However, there is a critical lack of evidence on current governance models and anurgent need for evaluation and research, particularly in low- and middle-income countries. Here we discuss why understanding and implementing effective prison health governance models is a critical component ofaddressing health inequities at the global level

  • service transitions interventions and Care pathways following remittal to prison from medium secure psychiatric services in england and wales national cohort study
    BJ Psych Open, 2020
    Co-Authors: Sarahjayne Leonard, Roger T Webb, Jennifer Shaw
    Abstract:

    Background Little is known internationally about return to prison from in-patient psychiatric services, including: circumstances leading to return, afterCare services and subsequent patient outcomes. Aims To examine and describe: (a) circumstances leading to return to prison from medium secure services; (b) available afterCare and early outcomes of returned persons; and (c) implications for policy development. Method Prospective cohort design with all patients (n = 96) returned to prisons from 33 National Health Service (NHS) medium secure services over a 6-month period in England and Wales. Follow-up was conducted for 1 year post-remittal, across 60 prisons. Results Less than 20% of patients with legal entitlement to section 117 afterCare under the Mental Health Act 1983 were receiving Care managed/delivered via the Care programme approach. Subsequent pathways included: inter-prison transfer (30%), use of the Assessment, Care in Custody and Teamwork process (49%), referral to secure services (21%) and community release (30%). Less than half of community releases were referred to a community mental health team. Conclusions Findings suggest that persons returned to prison are a vulnerable group of patients, many of whom require intervention (e.g. enhanced monitoring, admission to a healthCare wing, readmission to secure mental health services) on return to prison in the absence of targeted afterCare services. More robust guidance for discharge and afterCare planning procedures for persons remitted to prison should be developed to ensure that the benefits of in-patient admission are maintained and that individuals' legal rights to ongoing afterCare are upheld.
