New forum publication: Health and Nursing Care in the Criminal Justice Service. RCN Guidance for Nursing Staff.
We recently launched our new CJS publication which replaces our previous publication Caring for prisoners. We hope it will be the reference of first choice for new staff in CJS services and that existing staff will use it to support practice improvements. It's also invaluable to lecturers and students together with non-health colleagues such as police, prison officers, commissioners and researchers.
