      Soigner en prison exige absolument une manière d’être. L’écoute doit être respectueuse de toutes les contradictions qui peuvent se manifester au gré des entretiens avec les patients. La santé en prison, devenue un enjeu majeur de santé publique, requiert une spécificité de la prise en charge sanitaire. Cet ouvrage apporte un éclairage concret sur la prise en charge infirmière des détenus au sein des unités sanitaires (UCSA). Ces unités, créées en 1994, ont pour objectif d’assurer à la population carcérale une qualité et une continuité des soins équivalentes à celles offertes à l’ensemble de la population. Au regard de l’actualité, cette nouvelle édition s’est enrichie d’un chapitre sur les patients radicalisés. L’ensemble des données ont été mises à jour. Le lecteur retrouvera de nombreux témoignages qui éclairent la complexité et la difficulté de la relation soignant–soigné ainsi que la proposition de conduites à tenir afin de favoriser la juste distance thérapeutique. Ce livre s’adresse aux professionnels de santé, étudiants en soins infirmiers et à toute personne s’intéressant à la vie carcérale.
