Medications
Interview with PJ, Katherine, Jimmy, Baldy and Max
JM: Did you always have access to necessary medications?
PJ: n/a
Katherine: NO its the worst place ever to get medical
attention. If you had an emergency...and told
the nurse when she finally came around, they
dont care they would tell you to fill out a sick
call request and it would take days for you to
get the treatment you needed.
Jimmy: sometimes
Baldy: no, Im on psychiatric pills that help me with my
schizophrenia, and they dont give those to me.
Max: no
JM: How did you get your medications?
PJ: n/a
Katherine: The nurse would come with a cart 2 times a day.
Once in the early morning and once after dinner.
Jimmy: dont really know didnt complain if i had a
headache and didnt need any prescritions
Baldy: the nurse gives me my other meds.
Max: they refused to give me mine
JM: What types of punishments were incurred for abuse of drugs? Did you ever witness this?
PJ: loss of privileges
Katherine: They will send you to the box and you will get
another outside charge added onto the ones you
have.
Jimmy: time in the box
Baldy: im in jail aint I ?

A person is innocent until proven guilty. A county jail is a "holding pen"! Medical services are supposed to be afforded to inmate's, yes? Why are inmate's not allowed medications that their Dr's have prescribed for them on the "outside"?

ha the most horrible experience there! Had to detox off of benzo's, had a major seizure, felt like I had a mild stroke, cause I couldnt write, my speach was impaired...all they did was wheel me to medical and I laid on a glat mattress on a cold cement floor, in the dark. HORRIBLE! The medical there is a joke!
