Correctional Health Care: Addressing the Needs of the Elderly, Chronically Ill, and Terminally Ill Inmates

摘要

This report is designed to serve as a resource guide for correctional agencies researching management and treatment for elderly, chronically ill, and terminally ill inmate populations. It does not present a comprehensive model that can be adopted by all agencies, nor does it impart prescriptive, definitive advice. Rather, it is meant to provide guidance and information about promising approaches to help correctional managers and planners address these inmates' special needs.
