Description

This comprehensive Springer publication examines the complex ethical challenges inherent in providing psychiatric care within correctional settings. Recent research reveals high and increasing prevalence of mental disorders among prisoners across multiple countries and diagnostic categories, creating significant ethical dilemmas centred on resource allocation, patient autonomy, and informed choice within inherently coercive environments. The book explores the dual roles of forensic psychiatrists and the resulting tensions between individual patient care and broader public protection obligations. By presenting evidence-based models and detailed analysis of ethical frameworks specific to prison psychiatry, this work addresses the critical intersection of medical ethics, law, and institutional policy that shapes mental healthcare delivery in correctional facilities.

Addresses resource allocation dilemmas and questions of patient autonomy within coercive correctional environments.
