  • Summary

  • Adequate healthcare is a human right. So why is it elusive for much of America's incarcerated population? Nashia brings us along on the commute to her second job as a correctional nurse, and we meet Ron Shehee. Ron uses a wheelchair to get around, but when he arrived in a prison camp to serve his time, he realized that no one was prepared to handle even his basic needs. He says he was told that he couldn’t bring his chair inside — and another wheelchair wouldn’t be provided. Ron confides in Nashia and Kate, sharing what it was like to be a patient in the carceral system, and Nashia shares her experience trying to provide care and dignity to her patients in jail.
