Telemedicine in Jails
Clip: 3/20/2019 | 2mVideo has Closed Captions
ncIMPACT explores how jails are using telemedicine to treat those with mental illnesses.
Many county jails lack mental health clinicians or substance abuse professionals that provide services to those who need help. The Franklin County Detention Center has begun a telemedicine mental health clinic that allows detainees to be assessed by a licensed psychiatrist right there in the jail.
