What’s the emergency when prisoners go to A&E?
A&E attendances by people in prisons in England.
Nuffield Trust; 2026.
https://www.nuffieldtrust.org.uk/research/what-s-the-emergency-when-prisoners-go-to-ae-emergency-hospital-attendances-by-people-in-prisons-in-england
[This new report is the first to offer an in-depth assessment of A&E use by people in prison and adds to mounting evidence that health care is harder for prisoners to access. It finds a higher-than-expected number of A&E attendances by prisoners due to paracetamol overdose, seizures, and acute coronary syndrome, with opportunities for targeted intervention in these areas to avoid health crises.]
