Correctional health care organizations and agencies
Through informal partnerships, we developed a working group of professional organizations and other government agencies. The purpose of the working group was to help identify some of the most prominent problems within correctional health care. The working group also suggested ways to lower bloodborne pathogen exposures in correctional health care.
