Patient-Prisoner Policy

When law enforcement agencies bring prisoner-patients to UAMS or the State Hospital for treatment, the UAMS PD works with them to ensure prisoner-patients are guarded and escorted according to the Police Agencies Guarding Prisoner-Patients policy.

Guards, or sworn officers from agencies other than the UAMS PD, must accompany prisoner-patients at all times. The policy describes expectations for agencies with prisoner-patients in their custody at UAMS, including:

  • How to check in, which depends on whether the prisoner-patients are inpatients or outpatients and where they are being treated
  • Inpatient and outpatient security procedures
  • Release of prisoner-patients’ medical information
  • Appropriate restraints and their use
