Many individuals incarcerated have a serious mental illness; indeed, there are more mentally ill people in the jail/prison system than in the hospital. Inmates with mental illness remain in jail longer, they are at higher risk of being assaulted, and they present behavioral health management problems that may result in isolation compared with other inmates. Most troubling of all, these individuals are more likely to commit suicide than other inmates. In this webinar, Catherine Judd, MS, PA-C, CAQ-Psy, and Darell Smith, and Jason Carter, PharmD, discuss the challenges of treating patients with serious mental illness within the criminal justice system, the societal and economic costs of inadequate treatment, and the need for discharge planning that includes sufficient medication and help accessing mental health and other social services.
