Optimizing the Medical Emergency Response at Polk County Jail
Abstract
Background: Adequate healthcare within correctional facilities is essential for ensuring the well-being of inmates. However, Polk County Jail lacks 24-hour medical staffing, which can lead to delays in medical attention, exacerbation of health conditions, and increased risk of medical emergencies in the absence of medically trained personnel. Purpose: This research and poster investigate how staffing 24-hour medical personnel improves emergency medical response within the Polk County Jail. Approach: Our research used the Spectrum of Prevention model as a framework. We comprehensively analyzed emergency medical treatment resources and obstacles within the Polk County Jail. Our methodology involved data collection through various channels, including direct observations, insights from on-duty medical personnel, facilitation of the annual on-site emergency training seminar, and surveys administered to Polk County Sheriff Deputies. This approach allowed us to evaluate existing emergency response protocols, identify areas for improvement, and investigate barriers to establishing round-the-clock medical staffing. Outcomes/implications: Implementing 24-hour medical staffing at the Polk County Jail will improve health outcomes for incarcerated individuals and enhance overall community health. Around-the-clock coverage ensures a timely response to medical emergencies and helps prevent avoidable complications. To support this transition, a basic medical emergency response guide was also developed for non-medical staff, helping bridge current gaps in care during off-hours.
