Lived experience of avoidable healthcare harm in prisons in England
Practices of care for staff at Wellcome Collection
This article addresses the theme of care for gallery, library, archive, and museum (GLAM) professionals by exploring a suite of practices of care for staff wellbeing co-developed within Wellcome Collection, a free museum and library in central London. We begin by providing some context on why and how practices of care for staff are being developed at Wellcome Collection. We then share three case studies drawn from across the organization on: work…
Sociodemographic factors and mental health in health care professionals and patients during Covid-19
The COVID-19 pandemic worsened mental health. This study aimed to: (1) measure the prevalence of loneliness, anxiety, depression, suicidal ideation or behavior, and stress in primary care patients, and physicians, healthcare providers, and healthcare staff; and (2) measure the association of socio-demographic and employment characteristics with mental health measures. A cross-sectional survey measured the prevalence of mental health outcomes in h…
Providing appropriate health and social care for people with dementia or mild cognitive impairment in the criminal justice system of England and Wales
Low-Level’ Social Care Needs of Adults in Prison (Loscip)
In England, local authorities are responsible for providing social care in prison in accordance with the Care Act (implemented in 2015), but little is known about ‘low-level’ needs that do not meet eligibility criteria. These ‘low-level’ social care needs can greatly affect individuals living in prison with limited autonomy. This scoping review aimed to describe the nature, extent, and conceptualisation of ‘low-level’ social care in UK prisons, i…
Homicide as the first conviction
The association between previous convictions and perpetrating homicide has been previously described but little is known about the characteristics of homicide offenders without previous convictions. By utilizing the unique database on homicide offenders held by the National Confidential Inquiry into Suicide and Safety in Mental Health, this study aimed to describe the sample of homicide perpetrators in England and Wales who have committed homicid…

Conducting Randomized Controlled Trials of Complex Interventions in Prisons
Randomized Controlled Trials (RCT) are the "gold standard" for measuring the effectiveness of an intervention. However, they have their limitations and are especially complex in prison settings. Several systematic reviews have highlighted some of the issues, including, institutional constraints e.g., "lock-downs," follow-ups, contamination of allocation conditions and a reliance on self-report measures. In this article, we reflect on our experien…
Characteristics of People Returned to Prison From Medium Secure Psychiatric Services in England and Wales
MSs in England and Wales are returning vulnerable individuals to prison in lieu of adequate aftercare services. The role of and responsibilities of MSSs as regards admissions from prison needs to be reconsidered
Risk factors for suicide in prisons
Using multiple case studies of health and justice services to inform the development of a new complex intervention for prison-leavers with common mental health problems (Engager)
A Cross-Sectional Study Investigating the Relationship Between Alexithymia and Suicide, Violence, and Dual Harm in Male Prisoners
Background: Suicide and violence are common within male prisoners. One suggested risk factor for both behaviors is alexithymia. Alexithymia describes a deficit in identifying and describing feelings and is also related to externally oriented thinking. This study aimed to explore the relationship between alexithymia, suicide, violence and dual harm in male prisoners. Methods: Eighty male prisoners were recruited from three prisons. Participants we…
Ethnic Minority Groups’ Experiences of Suicide Bereavement
It is estimated that between 36,000 and 360,000 people are affected by suicide every year in the UK, and a proportion may develop depression and post-traumatic stress disorder, or engage in high-risk behaviours. Recent systematic analyses have revealed a clear gap in research on suicide bereavement in minority ethnic groups. This study aimed to understand the experiences and support needs of individuals from ethnic minority backgrounds bereaved b…
The older prisoner health and social care assessment and plan (OHSCAP) versus treatment as usual
Current Controlled Trials: ISRCTN11841493 , 25/10/2012
Clarifying realist analytic and interdisciplinary consensus processes in a complex health intervention
Judgemental rationality is infrequently referenced within discussions of Realist Evaluations. Judgemental rationality refers to researchers’ capacity to assess which, potential, meanings provide the most credible explanations. In evaluation work, rationale for analysis is provided, though rarely do we see how an evaluator made judgements between competing theories, and which theories were discarded and why. We provide a worked example of the appl…
Words Don't Come Easy
Suicide and violence are prevalent within male prisons in the UK. It has been suggested that alexithymia may be associated with both suicide and violence. Alexithymia can be defined as an inability to identify or discuss emotions. The present study aimed to qualitatively explore male prisoners' experiences of alexithymia and how these experiences may relate to suicide and violence. Fifteen male prisoners were recruited from two prisons in the Nor…
The typology of parricide and the role of mental illness
Parricide is a rare type of homicide in which mental illness is often an important factor. The aims of this study were (a) to describe the characteristics of parricide offenders with a focus on mental illness and clinical care and (b) to examine Heide's widely used typology of parricide through a data‐driven approach. We analyzed all homicides in England and Wales between 1997 and 2014. Parricide offenders in our sample were most often male, unma…
Building programme theory to develop more adaptable and scalable complex interventions
Medical Research Council guidelines recognise the need to optimise complex interventions prior to full trial through greater understanding of underlying theory and formative process evaluation, yet there are few examples. A realist approach to formative process evaluation makes a unique contribution through a focus on theory formalisation and abstraction. The success of an intervention is dependent on the extent to which it gels or jars with exis…
Gisli Palsson. The Man Who Stole Himself
Over the last decade, historians of race and slavery in the Atlantic World have used the prism of the enslaved individual to consider how slavery, colonialism, and human rights shaped the modern world. Adopting a microhistorical approach, scholars working in the Iberian, French, English, and Danish contexts demonstrate the myriad ways that individuals experienced systems of bondage and inequality; their accounts also expose the broader constructs…
Birth and initiation on the Peers Plantation
A central debate within slavery studies centers on the question of whether enslaved Africans ‘retained’ their cultures or became ‘creolized’ in the Americas. Focusing on two enslaved women and the six children they bore by their master in late seventeenth-century Barbados, this paper suggests how creolization operated in the early modern English Caribbean. The women and children were baptized and provided for in their master’s will. Yet they were…
Treatment Barriers and Support for Male Ex-Armed Forces Personnel in Prison
Ex-armed forces personnel represent a potentially vulnerable group within the prison population. To provide support to this group, we need to understand their needs and help-seeking behavior. A focus group with professionals and semi-structured interviews with service users explored perspectives of the treatment barriers faced by this group and their support needs. Data were analyzed using constant comparison methods, and four primary themes were…
Personal recovery in personality disorder
You can't have them in here’
Older prisoners are the fastest growing sub-group in the English and Welsh prison estate. They have complex health needs, in spite of which there is a dearth of literature concerning their access to prescribed medication. Literature relating to younger prisoners highlights common issues around maintaining continuity of medication upon reception into prison custody. The objective of the study was to explore the lived experience of older male priso…
The Disputatious Caribbean
Sarah Barber characterizes the seventeenth-century Caribbean as a "disputatious" arena, where local forces and imperial ambitions clashed in a fight for control over one of the early modern world's most contentious zones of colonization.Rather than seeing the "controversy, active doubt, and confusion" (p.1)-or "disputatiousness," as she puts it-that shaped society on the islands during the Stuart monarchies as an accidental byproduct of the perio…
National cohort study of absolute risk and age-specific incidence of multiple adverse outcomes between adolescence and early middle age
This is the first comprehensive assessment of the incidence rates and absolute risks of these multiple adverse outcomes. Approximately 1 in 50 males and 1 in 120 females who are alive on their 15th birthday will die by age 40. By examining the same cohort at risk, we compared risks for multiple outcomes without differential inter-cohort biases. These epidemiological profiles will inform further research into the pathways leading to these adverse …

Felling a List Coming On
This research note explores the different meanings attached to the idea and experience of a fast pace of life. Based on material from the Mass-Observation Archive it argues that control over time is indicative of gender difference and that while largely the product of men and women's different positions vis-a-vis the labour market, there are also unconscious associations around gender and time which affect how successfully each sex manages to con…
Punctuality and the Everyday Ethics of Time
A taken-for-granted aspect of everyday life is that people are usually punctual. This norm is so well established that a common sense understanding of unpunctuality as a personality defect prevails in the social science literature. Drawing on qualitative and experiential data from the Mass Observation Archive, this paper argues that punctuality is less a matter of individual virtue and more one of age, gender and work situation. It proposes that …
They just throw you out’
Older prisoners are the fastest growing incarcerated sub-group. They have more complex health and social care needs than both younger prisoners and their age-matched peers living in the community. Prisoners who have been recently released are at enhanced risk in terms of their physical and mental health. Consequently, there is a need for timely, multi-disciplinary release planning. The aim of this study was to explore the health and social care n…

Undertaking action research in prison
Older prisoners are the fastest growing group in prisons. They have complex health and social care needs and the coordination of their care is suboptimal. An action learning group including health care staff, prison staff and older prisoners was established at one prison in England. The group developed the Older prisoner Health and Social Care Assessment and Plan (OHSCAP) which is a health and social care assessment and care planning process for …

Accounting for Psychotropic Medication Changes in Prisons
Psychotropic medicines are widely used to treat mental illness; however, people entering prison commonly report that prescribed psychotropic medicines are changed or withdrawn, adding to their distress in difficult times. Drawing on three extracts from a larger qualitative dataset in which patients and doctors were interviewed about psychotropic medication use in English prisons, we combined discursive psychological and Foucauldian discourse anal…

Consistency of reports of rape behaviors among nonincarcerated men
Education, Gender And Anxiety
This interdisciplinary text explores the scope for applying psychoanalytical ideas to gender inequalities that are inherent in the educational system. Although modern education aims to egalitarian and meritocratic, it is still true that in most cases it does not improve the life chances of girls to the extent that it ought to, or does for boys. Based on literature gathered from North America, Europe and Britain, this text argues for an 'object re…

Multi-agency action learning
The police have underdeveloped links with mental health and social care services despite daily contact with mentally ill individuals. They struggle with identifying and managing the mentally ill in custody, and consistently express a lack of support from partner agencies. In 2010, our research team developed a mental health screening tool and pathway for use by police custody officers, The Police Mental Health Screening Questionnaire (PolQuest). …
