Case studies

Introduction

We strive to deliver high quality humanitarian offender healthcare to detainees, as well as to ex-detainees and their dependents.

Whether it is being charged for or provided on a humanitarian basis, healthcare should be evidence based - that is, informed by high quality research. Yet compared to patients who are not detainees, there is relatively little clinical research into the health needs of detainees.

By writing up and sharing case studies, we hope to improve international offender healthcare.
