Mental Health Nurse qualifications in NSW prisons
Dear Corrective Services NSW,
I am writing to you as I am a bit concerned that current mental health diagnosis and treatments from outside professionals are being completely ignored in custody.
Why do you interfere with treatments already in place by professionals in regards to mental health medication?
What are the qualifications of the people who decide prisoners stop medication abruptly once in custody? Are they of a higher standing or more knowledgeable
Than the medical professionals on the outside?
Yours faithfully,
Lauren Ainslie
