Prison health 'not good enough' despite overhaul
Prison healthcare is still not good enough - four years after it was revamped to bring it up to NHS standards, a report claims.
The joint Care Quality Commission and the Inspectorate of Prisons study said while there were signs of improvement, a number of areas of weakness remained.
In particular, it highlighted the drug treatment as a major concern.
The inspectors carried out reviews of 21 NHS trusts, responsible for more than a quarter of England's jails.
