Abstract

The objective of this thesis is to provide a summary and a comparison of the rights of prisoners to medical treatment as specified by law with actual medical conditions in penitentiaries. Hopefully this thesis will be a useful review of the past, but more importantly, it is hoped that this research will give corrections future directions regarding specific medical standards that must be met.
