JM: Did you always have access to necessary medications? Ron: no Tiffany: I will relate my OWN experience here. I was
offered twice by medical staff medications. I
asked what they were giving me and was explained
they have 100s of patients and they can't keep
track of them all. I found this VERY
unprofessional and I refused the meds they wanted
to give me. If they can't tell me what pill they
are providing, then I won't take it. Other
inmates enjoyed the fact that many times other's
medications were given to them. I guess some
enjoy anything to pass the time on something to
make you sleep or make you feel high. There was
also alot of trading of meds between the inmates. Hugh: I never took any medications. Stevan: no not always u had to prove were on it
JM: How did you get your medications? Ron: you had to sigh up for it . Tiffany: A nurse would come to your pod, escorted by a
deputy and the meds were in a small envelope. Hugh: They had medical staff (I hope)bring pills to
people with regular conditions in the morning and
evening before meal times. Stevan: U got the meds once in the morn and again in the evening
the guard would bring the nurse in
JM: What types of punishments were incurred for abuse of drugs? Did you ever witness this? Ron: time was taken from you in the form of a write
up. Hugh: I think the improper use of medication was a six
month addition to your sentence, but it could turn
in to another charge. Same with street drugs.
Never seen any one use, most keep it pretty quiet. Stevan: I never wtness any thing lik . That it all was pretty much
supervised if,it ever happened I neve saw it
