Description

Welcome back to the BJN podcast. In this episode, Sean Boyle (Editor, British Journal of Nursing) sits down with Lindsay Hinson (Practice Development Nurse and Clinical Practitioner) to discuss the nature of prison nursing as a profession, the current issues the prison system is experiencing, and how nurses navigate the complex nature of prison-centred patient care. 

The conversation explores Lindsay's experience as a prison nurse, why she believes in prison nursing as a profession, and what needs to change in the government's current strategies relating to prison health and wellbeing.
