RELATIONSHIP PROBLEMS BETWEEN CORRECTIONAL AND PSYCHIATRIC STAFFS IN A PRISON HOSPITAL
Abstract
This paper has tried to describe a dichotomous relationship between correctional and psychiatric staffs in a prison hospital. Our efforts have been directed towards understanding and fulfilling some of the needs we and correctional officers have while working together in such an institution. With resolution of some of these conflicts, we have moved toward a more integrated approach to the treatment of patients, under direction of the psychiatrist, in an administrative setup which starts out as being a more rigid dichotomy of responsibility.
