Individuals suffering from mental illnesses tend to fall victim to the criminal justice system due to their uncontrollable actions that result from their mental illness symptoms.

Mental illness is a problem that occurs in all nations around the world. This is even more true for the populations in correctional facilities for both men and women. The overwhelming number of persons in correctional facilities with health issues is caused by: the rational that people with mental health disorders are a threat to society; narrow mindedness and low tolerance for people who are different from us; no resources to acquire the proper care needed. These mental health problems may have occurred prior to incarceration, and may nurtured further by the stressful environment of prisons, or they may have also been caused by being incarcerated in the first place in addition to other prior issues.

From a caseworker’s perspective, inmates can be difficult to treat effectively, especially if you are uncomfortable with the population. “The hierarchical structure and safety issues put prison workers under continuous daily pressure. They face a major challenge to handle their daily tasks while keeping emotions of anxiety, anger, and fear hidden so as not to interfere with their job performance.” (Ghaddar, Ronda, Nolasco, 504). Dealing with anger over the crimes committed by these people, the anxiety of trying to assist them in solving their issues, and the fear of them committing some form of violence towards you can be overwhelming to a caseworker. “Work ability is defined as ‘How good is the worker at present and in the near future and how able is he/she to do his/her work with respect to work demands, health, and mental resources.’” (Ghaddar et all, 503). In this study, scientists conducted a study in which the effectiveness (work ability) of a worker for prisons was put on an index (work ability index, WAI) and measured. This was done in order to determine if, after a certain age, social workers began to “burn out” when it comes to their ability to complete the emotionally and mentally taxing activities of being a resource for prisoners. According to this study, the following psychosocial factors were identified to interfere with performance of the worker: “high workload, emotional demands, needs to hide emotions, low control and influence, poor social support and

Since 1978 the Prison Health System has been providing health care in prisons to more than 268,600 inmates (Robbins,1999, p.203). Most people who committed these crimes have the opportunity to participate in accredited programmes, which their main aim is to reduce re-offending (Justice Website,2017). Such as the ART (aggression replacement training) which is a programme for people who are finding difficult to control themselves and their tempers. During this programme, they learn how to accept responsibility for their actions. One other programme that is currently available is the PPTSP (Prison Partnership Programme Twelve Step). In this programme, they are striving to make them grasp that they have to stop drinking alcohol or taking drugs due to the fact that those chemicals can make them to not think clearly or even participate in dangerous activities without being able to understand the danger of their acts. Furthermore, according to Robbins (1999), the National Commission Correctional Health System have been providing treatments and care for inmates and have been managing multiple medical
