Back to Members Course of the Month
Each month, APA members have free access to an on-demand CME course on a popular topic.*
Correctional systems in the U.S. house inmate populations with high rates of mental health conditions. The high need for mental health services is coupled with a shortage of correctional psychiatrists, which limits access to services. This course discusses interventions that some correctional systems have employed to expand access to mental health care, improve the quality of care provided, and enhance patient safety.
