Members of the taskforce, hospital personnel, and experts in education from the UW Learning Gateway/LMS system developed a module for educating trainee physicians (residents and fellows) on caring for patients experiencing incarceration. This training includes background information on the criminal legal system and correctional healthcare in general, ethical medical principles related to caring for this unique and vulnerable population, case-based examples, and procedural information for situations commonly encountered. While this training is targeted for trainee physicians in the UW system, other healthcare workers may find this information helpful. Please use this training for your own education and interest. If you have questions or concerns, contact our group.
