ABSTRACT
This chapter aims to demonstrate that appropriate and adequate healthcare for elderly prisoners can be and is achieved within the custodial setting. This is based on my own experience as head of healthcare within HMP and YOI Norwich (employed by Norwich Primary Care Trust). It should be noted that this is based on my own experiences and observations as a practitioner and does not necessarily represent the views of either the prison or the Trust. Comments by prisoners/patients will also be included.
