National Survey of Undergraduate and Graduate Medical Education Exposure to Correctional Psychiatry

Listen to this summary

This study aims to assess the exposure and educational experiences related to correctional psychiatry among psychiatry residency and medical student clerkship directors in the U.S. The findings reveal that while there is recognition of the importance of teaching correctional health, actual exposure and mandatory training in this area are limited, highlighting a need for increased educational opportunities in correctional psychiatry for future psychiatrists.
