Episode 9: Healthcare Behind The Wall
from The Fly Behind The Wall · host Connie Alleyne
Providing healthcare behind the wall is extremely challenging. Providers are forced to work within cost and resource constrained boundaries with a population more medically and mentally compromised than any other population. Failure to meet their needs is a violation of their 8th Amendment rights. The world of corrections can be a very unforgiving environment and should you withhold any appropriate level of care that could mean your license and livelihood. It is not an environment where anyone is willing to take any chances with the lives of offenders.
