| New Issue of JCHC |
One of the many benefits of Academy membership is a complimentary subscription (a $102 value) to the Journal of Correctional Health Care, published by the National Commission on Correctional Health Care.
On its way to you now is Volume 13, Issue 4. This issue features six articles, which cover cognition and its role in applying knowledge and changing behavior, physician empathy, juvenile mental health, peer education, infectious disease management, and health and wellness. This issue also contains our second Readers Write (addressing the question "When is a decision not to treat the right choice?").
Continuing education credits for CCHPs, nurses, physicians and psychologists are available through a self-study exam.
