2017 Annual Report of the Comptroller and Auditor General and Appropriation Accounts
Vote 21 - Prisons

Ms Caron McCaffrey:

We actually have provided mental health awareness training to all of our staff. It is an area that we identify as an issue or a skill that our staff require. All of our staff have gotten specific mental health awareness training. Obviously the nursing staff and our doctors would have quite a lot of background and training, and that is augmented by the specialist service that we get.
