Description - Prison Nursing by Ann E. Norman
The benefit of having skilled nurses working in prisons has been
noted in a recent report from the Chief Inspector of Prisons (Home
Office 1998). This report recommended that the organisation of
health care in prisons be made the responsibility of the NHS.
This is the first book aimed specifically at nurses working in
prisons. There is a specific set of skills needed to be a prison
nurse. The environment is radically different to other areas of
practice and the nurse-patient relationship and its boundaries are
of paramount importance
This book is written by nursing experts in this field and
includes chapters on women's health, ethnic and cultural issues,
educational demands, the legal and political settings, prison
culture, and suicide.
