Nursing care partnerships with women leaving jail. Effects on health and crime.

Crime is a significant and complex social issue with profound health consequences for individuals, families, and communities. Conceptualizing criminal behaviors as health behaviors reflects the potential for innovative interdisciplinary approaches and alliances to interrupt cycles of crime as a way to improve health. Incarcerated populations have extremely high rates of undiagnosed and undertreated infectious diseases and mental illnesses. Nursing is uniquely positioned to develop prevention, intervention, and treatment strategies for individuals involved in criminal activities before, during, and after incarceration.
