dc.description.abstract | Oregon’s cities and counties operate 39 local correctional facilities, including 31 county jails and eight municipal jails. All adults in custody in Oregon’s jails receive health care by medical staff employed by the jail, through in-facility contracted providers, or at community-based providers, such as local clinics or emergency departments. In 2021, the legislature tasked the Criminal Justice Commission (CJC) with convening an advisory committee to craft recommendations for minimum jail health care standards for an independent jail commission to continue reviewing and refining jail health care standards in the future, among other tasks. This report details the recommendations developed by the advisory committee. | |
