Formare gli operatori delle carceri alla promozione della salute : ricerca-azione valutativa di un'esperienza in Emilia-Romagna

2022 - Franco Angeli

P. 159-174

  • Health promotion in prison presents many challenges. In order to overcome some of them, the Emilia-Romagna Region introduced in its prisons the "prison's health promoter", a profes-sional working in collaboration with the healthcare team, in a relation of closer proximity to the prisoners. This paper presents the results of an action-research, aimed at implementing, in 2019, a blended training course for prisons' health professionals on the strategic topics of change promotion and cultural competence.
  • Through interviews and focus groups with partic-ipants and shared reflection moments, this research sheds light on the need of adapting the primary care health promotion's tools to the specific context of the in-prison health promotion and to strongly custom "cultural competence" training needs to the specific environment con-sidered. It also aims to identify possible improvements for future training sessions. [Publisher's text]
