STANDARDS FOR CORRECTIONAL HEALTH SERVICES
Developed by leaders in the
fields of health, law and corrections, NCCHC’s nationally
recognized Standards lay the foundation for
constitutionally acceptable health services systems. Use of
these benchmark standards can improve health services delivery.
The Standards address the following general areas: health
care services and support, inmate care and treatment, special
needs and services, governance and administration, personnel and
training, safety, health records, health promotion and
medical-legal issues. These editions feature a user-friendly
format; standards on current issues such as patient safety and
clinical performance enhancement; clear compliance indicators
that define expected outcomes and aid in self-assessment;
guidelines for facilities of various sizes; best practices
recommendations; and appendices on legal obligations, quality
improvement, suicide prevention and more. Glossary and index. Published by

STANDARDS FOR
MENTAL HEALTH SERVICES IN CORRECTIONAL FACILITIES
NCCHC has developed standards
specifically for mental health services, to be accompanied by an
accreditation program that will begin in late 2008. This program
is designed for mental health services that operate under an
authority different from health services. In cases where both
services do not seek accreditation together, this program
provides another option for the facility’s mental health
component. The mental health standards parallel those for health
services in format and substance, and likewise cover the general
areas of care and treatment, clinical records, administration,
personnel and legal issues. The difference is that they make
more explicit what the standards require for adequate delivery
of mental health services. Together, these tools can help
facilities determine proper levels of care, organize systems
more effectively and efficiently, and demonstrate that
constitutional requirements are being met. Glossary and index.
Published by NCCHC. Soft cover, $69.95
STANDARDS FOR
OPIOID TREATMENT PROGRAMS IN CORRECTIONAL FACILITIES
These new standards represent the requirements for
corrections-based opioid treatment programs seeking
accreditation from NCCHC. In developing these standards, NCCHC
used federal regulations and community standards as a guide and
modified them to take into account the issues unique to
providing services in a correctional facility. Conforming with
the Standards for Health Services, the OTP Standards
are divided into the nine general areas listed above. All of the
standards are linked to specific federal regulations. Published

REFERENCE PUBLICATIONS
Acting Out: Maladaptive Behavior in Confinement
Acting
Out examines a problematic group of inmates—those who
appear to sabotage their own rehabilitation by repeated displays
of violence, disruptiveness or otherwise self-defeating
behavior. The authors use disciplinary records and mental health
exams to reconstruct the careers of chronic offenders and find
common threads in behavior. The result: a fascinating analysis
of the events that precipitate "acting out." The
research findings inform a model intervention that holds promise
for disrupting the cycle of maladaptive behaviors.

Mental Health Handbook
The number of criminal offenders with mental health problems has
increased steadily, bringing with them complex assessment,
treatment and management issues. This is the first book to offer

populations in correctional programs and facilities. Edited by
Thomas J. Fagan, PhD, and Robert K. Ax, PhD, experts with over

is divided into three sections. The first provides a flexible
model for organizing mental health services based on staffing
levels, facility mission and local need. The second considers
typical offender problems in many correctional systems and how
they are customarily managed. The third presents
clinical and consultative activities offered by mental health
professionals. Sage Publications (2002). Hardcover,

Corrections Nursing: Scope and Standards
of Practice
RNs who
deliver patient care in the criminal justice system must
demonstrate the essence of nursing in practice settings and work
environments for which health care is not a primary mission,
delivering adequate and humane levels of care in an unbiased and
nonjudgmental manner. These RNs must be qualified across an
enormous range of health care work to address patient needs
including women's health, the full arc of the age continuum
(pediatric through geriatric) and end-of-life care. They must
understand and apply the concepts of primary care services that
employ the skill sets of ambulatory care, community health,
emergency, occupational health, public health and school
nursing.

accountabilities at all practice levels and settings. American

Health Issues Among Incarcerated
Women
The number of women in U.S. prisons has exploded in the past 20
years, yet the health care system serving them has not expanded
to meet their unique needs. This comprehensive book addresses
the physical and mental needs of women prisoners and suggests
that they cannot be properly treated unless their lifestyles
before, during and after incarceration are considered. Twenty
original essays illustrate the many challenges, such as physical
and sexual violence before incarceration, high-risk behaviors
that lead to STDs, disproportionate numbers of African American
women behind bars, sexual and reproductive health concerns, and
common chronic and infectious diseases. Edited by Ronald L.

Using the MMPI-2 in Criminal Justice
and Correctional Settings
Written by the foremost expert on the use of the Minnesota
Multiphasic Personality Inventory instruments in correctional
settings, this is the first work that instructs correctional
psychologists in the unique applications and interpretations of
the MMPI-2, the most widely used personality assessment
instrument in these settings. Based on empirical research, the
book addresses differences in administration, scoring and
evaluation, and describes issues such as administration
challenges; assessment of malingering and deception; the meaning
of elevated scores on various scales; difficulties of using
conventional code-type analyses; and how to interpret profiles
using the Megargee classification system. Megargee’s
computerized Criminal Justice and Correctional Report and case
study analyses of various types of offender profiles are also
discussed. By Edwin I. Megargee, PhD, CCHP. University of

Classifying
Criminal Offenders with the MMPI-2: The Megargee System
Revised for the Minnesota Multiphasic Personality Inventory–2,
the Megargee system provides a method for classifying criminal
offenders based on their MMPI-2 profiles. This empirically
derived system has been investigated in a wide variety of
settings including corrections, probation and parole. It has
been tested in federal, state and military correctional
institutions of all security levels, local jails, halfway houses and forensic mental health units. Its use has been
extended to females, older men and juveniles. This resource fully evaluates the
reliability, validity, sources and uses of the system developed
by Edwin Megargee, PhD, CCHP, the foremost expert on the use of
the MMPI instruments in correctional settings. Based on
data from over 100 independent studies, the authors
recommend the optimal change agent, treatment program and
setting for each type of offender. University of Minnesota Press (2001).
