In this episode, we explore the complexities of the doctor-patient relationship in a challenging setting with our guest, Joseph Baskin, a jailhouse psychiatrist. Joseph shares his experiences working with inmates who suffer from serious mental illnesses like schizophrenia and severe bipolar disorder. These individuals often lack insight into their own conditions, making the traditional doctor-patient contract difficult to establish. We delve into the unique challenges of assessing and treating patients in jail, where factors like intoxication, substance abuse, and withdrawal complicate their mental health.

Joseph Baskin is a psychiatrist.

He discusses the KevinMD article, “The unspoken contract between doctors and patients: Navigating mental illness in the jail setting.”

Our presenting sponsor is Nuance, a Microsoft company.
